💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, meet grepmidi — the tool that displays the structure of MIDI files. This page comes from the General Commands Manual, and it's giving “tiny parser, big helper energy.” 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

grepmidi [ -f ] file [ ... ]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

grepmidi is a simple parser for files in raw MIDI format. It is far from complete, but it lets you get a grip of the basic song structure in the file. That means it does not display single note — it only shows meta information embedded in the MIDI file. grepmidi can also be useful to check whether a given MIDI file contains errors. 👀

More than one file can be given on the commandline. Option -f tells grepmidi to prepend each line of output with the filename that is currently checked.

  • -f — prepend each line of output with the filename that is currently checked. filename reveal era ✨

grepmidi is distributed along with MusE, a full-fledged MIDI Music Editor. periodt. 🎹
