I'm looking for a way to turn a midi file into a text file, maybe run a
script on it, do some editing, and turn it back into a midi file again.

Rosegarden's notator doesn't work well enough because its text file
ignores too much of the details that I want to tweak with.

Under DOS I started using a bunch of utilities which did the trick
(http://ww2.iicm.edu/Cpub), but there's no DOS here any more. The
utilities come with source code, but I can't get them to compile under
FreeBSD. I don't know if they would work or not. I do know that I'm
not clever enough to find out. Maybe someone else has?

Before I go cross-eyed trying to edit the midi files directly, has
anyone else done what I'm trying to do? Is there anything else
around that will convert midis to and from ASCII?
