some people (including julien) want JACK MIDI ports to show up as ALSA sequencer ports too, so he has an additional program for that (j2a_bridge).
finally, julien is running a program to generate MIDI clock messages.

Hi,
It seems that I'm very confused by the whole jack MIDI system. Are
there some docs to refer to, as in a tutorial? I'm confused why Julien
needs to use so many Jack applications to set up a single MIDI
connection...it's certainly less involved with aconnect. And I've
certainly started jackd with -X and have access to alsa sequencers--so
why the other timer and bridge apps, etc?
