Okay Julien ... looks like a replay of what we did a year or so ago.
I'm thinking I'm a complete idiot each time I try midish!

I just installed midish from Ubuntu. No midishrc file created in the
install, so I put the one in /usr/share/docs/midish into /etc.
Uncompressed it and add the dnew line from above.
And ... the test:
bob$ midish
dnew: no such proc
So, let's take out the dnew from the /etc/midishrc file.
Now, it runs ... but no play.
bob$ midish
import "bridge.mid"
p
press control-C to finish
^C
Okay, assuming the port isn't set. Perhaps...
bob$ midish
devattach 0 "20:0" rw
import "bridge.mid"
p
20:0: No such file or directory
press control-C to finish
So, getting somewhere?
Now, we'll try smfplay:
bob$ smfplay -d 20:0 bridge.mid
20:0: No such file or directory
press control-C to finish
^C
Again, I have no idea

Oh yes, aplaymidi works just fine. Only it doesn't record :) And
arecordmidi is great too, but it doesn't play.
