NAME
     wildmidi - example player for libWildMidi

LIBRARY
     libWildMidi

FILES
     /usr/local/share/wildmidi/wildmidi.cfg

SYNOPSIS
     wildmidi  [-bhlvwnst]  [-c config-file] [-d audiodev] [-m volume-level] [-o
     wav-file] [-f frequency-Hz(MUS)]  [-r  sample-rate]  [-g  convert-xmi-type]
     midifile ...

DESCRIPTION
     This is a demonstration program to show the capabilities of libWildMidi.

     midifile  can be a MIDI type file in the HMI, HMP, MIDI, MUS or XMI formats
     and is processed by libWildMidi and the resulting audio is  output  by  the
     player.

     You  can  have more than one midifile on the command line and wildmidi will
     pass them to libWildMidi for processing, one after the other. You can  also
     use wildcards, for example: wildmidi *.mid

OPTIONS
     -b | --reverb
	    Turns on an 8 point reverb engine that adds depth to the final mix.

     -c config-file | --config config-file
	    Uses  the  configuration  file  stated  by	config-file  instead  of
	    /usr/local/share/wildmidi/wildmidi.cfg

     -d audiodev | --device=audiodev
	    Send the audio to audiodev instead of the default. ALSA defaults  to
	    the  system  "default" while OSS defaults to "/dev/dsp". Other envi-
	    ronments do not support this option.

     -h | --help
	    Displays command line options.

     -f | --frequency
	    Use frequency F Hz for playback (MUS).

     -g | --convert
	    Convert XMI: 0 - No Conversion (default)
			 1 - MT32 to GM
			 2 - MT32 to GS

     -l | --log_vol
	    Some MIDI files have been recorded on hardware that  uses  a  volume
	    curve,  making  them sound really badly mixed on other MIDI devices.
	    Use this option to use volume curves.

     -m volume-level | --mastervol=volume-level
	    Set the overall volume level to volume-level. The minimum is  0  and
	    the maximum is 127, with the default being 100.

     -o wav-file | --wavout=wav-file
	    Records the audio in wav format to wav-file.

     -r sndrate | --rate=sndrate
	    Set the audio output rate to sndrate. The default rate is 32072.

     -n | --roundtempo
	    Round tempo to nearest whole number.

     -s | --skipsilentstart
	    Skips any silence at the start of playback.

     -v | --version
	    Display version and copyright information.

     -x | --tomidi
	    Convert a MUS or an XMI file to midi and save to file.

TEST OPTIONS
     These  options  are not designed for general use. Instead these options are
     designed to make it easier to listen to specific sound samples.

     Note: These options are not displayed by -h | --help

     -k N | --test_bank=N
	    Set the test bank to N. Range is 0 to 127.

     -p N | --test_patch=N
	    Set the test patch to N. Range is 0 to 127.

     -t | --test_midi
	    Plays the built in test midi which plays all 127 notes.

USER INTERFACE
     The player accepts limited user input that allows	some  interaction  while
     playing midi files.

     +	    Turns the master volume up.

     -	    Turns the master volume down.

     e	    Turns enhanced resampling on and off.

     l	    Turns volume curves on and off.

     r	    Turns the final mix reverb on and off.

     n	    Play the next midi on the command line.

     m	    Save  the currently playing file to a midi file. NOTE: This saves to
	    the current directory.

     p	    Pause the playback. Note: since the audio is buffered it  will  stop
	    when the audio buffer is empty.

     .	    Seek forward 1 second. Note: Clears active midi events and will only
	    play midi events from after the new position.

     ,	    Seek  backwards  1	second. Note: Clears active midi events and will
	    only play midi events from after the new position.
