as I'm googling around, I've read a couple of things about being able to do
cat <sysexfilename> >/dev/midi00

but that has not yet worked :)

actually right now I'm trying to dump qcard (programs, aka patches, aka 
instruments aka sounds baby :) ) sysex files into an alesis s4 (the 
quadrasynth rack mount version) - it's the S4, not the S4 plus - which makes 
it a bit old :)  so I have .SYX files - in cakewalk, I would go to the sysex 
screen, and choose import, and import the .syx file into its sort of buffer, 
and then just choose send, and the S4 would wake up and do a little dance and 
then the info would be there...

I also stumbled upon mention of DOS emulation that would allow running of DOS 
applications - that tickles my fancy because my preferred sequencer has been 
Cakewalk 5.0 for DOS for almost ever :)
