pidgin midi sounds
this is a little shell script i wrote as an exercise to learn how to send raw MIDI commands to a midi device, as well as some basic shell scripting
it translates an input from pidgin for a .wav file into a series of midi commands using sed, amidi and a simple CASE statement
hope you find it useful if not simply a learning experience ^^
any suggestions on how i might be able to improve it would be appreciated ^^
the command to invoke it from pidgin is
Code:
/path/to/script/scriptname.sh %s
the script is
Code:
#!/bin/bash
