OVERVIEW:

   MidiInfo is a little CLI-utility which shows the  most  important  events
that  are  present  in the midifile. It can only read format 0 and 1 general
midi files.

               YOU NEED KS2.0 OR ABOVE TO USE THIS PROGRAM !

SYNOPSIS:

   MidiInfo [midifile]

   If you leave out the optional [midifile] a filerequester will appear from
which you can select ONE midifile.

OUTPUT:

   The information found within the midifile is displayed  in  a  nice  ANSI
format.  The  blue  (or which ever color you have set in your wb-palette...)
items stand for the kind of event that it is followed  by.  The  list  below
describes their meaning.

   TXT: any kind of non-specified text event (MetaEvent 01). If the  '\'  or
        '/' character is found more than four times in the beginning of  the
        string, it is assumed that this text-subtype is used for LYRICS only
        (see Karaoke).

   (c): a string which holds the owner of  copyright,  and  more  often  the
        maker of this fine piece of music.

   TRK: the name of the track this text was found in.

   INS: the name of the instrument used in  the  track.  The  INS  field  is
        always printed besides the corresponding track. Sometimes this event
        is used for notes accompanying the track.

   MRK: this means marker, an event making the musician aware of a movement.

   CUE: a point in time where somethings supposed to happen, like the  start
        of a solo or a moviescore type event.

   Special Items:

      These are verbose boolean keywords which are displayed  when  such  an
      event has been spotted within the midifile.

      SysEx-Flow : A System Exclusive event which is divided into pieces and
                   spread out in time.
      SysRealTime: These  commands  control  the  sequencers  clock,  start,
                   continue and stop  information  as  well  as  the  active
                   sensing pulse.
      SysCommon:   These control the songposition and tune-request.
      SysUnivers:  Sysex commands which are to be  understood  by  every  GM
                   compatable device  (except  for  the  GM-Reset  which  is
                   displayed seperately, see below).
      RolandSysEx: The file contains  roland  (GS)  sysex  (except  for  the
                   GS-Reset which is displayed seperately, see below).
      GM-Reset:    This SysEx command stands for a GM-Device reset.
      GS-Reset:    This SysEx command stands for a GS-Device reset.
      Karaoke:     The midifile  contains  textevents  used  for  the  lyric
                   guideline.
