NAME
       aplaymidi - play Standard MIDI Files


SYNOPSIS
       aplaymidi -p client:port[,...] [-d delay] midifile ...


DESCRIPTION
       aplaymidi  is  a	 command-line  utility	that plays the specified MIDI
       file(s) to one or more ALSA sequencer ports.


OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	      Prints a list of options.


       -V, --version
	      Prints the current version.


       -l, --list
	      Prints a list of possible output ports.


       -p, --port=client:port,...
	      Sets the sequencer port(s) to which  the	events	in  the	 MIDI
	      file(s) are sent.

	      A	 client can be specified by its number, its name, or a prefix
	      of its name. A port is specified by its number; for port 0 of a
	      client, the ":0" part of the port specification can be omitted.

	      For compatibility with  pmidi(1),	 the  port  specification  is
	      taken  from  the ALSA_OUTPUT_PORTS environment variable if none
	      is given on the command line.


       -d, --delay=seconds
	      Specifies how long to wait after the end of each MIDI file,  to
	      allow the last notes to die away.
