MIDIrip ver. 1.0▀ /x/ Copyright 1994 Mikael Fredriksson
usage: midirip [/debug] filename
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
This is a small utility to extract MIDI files from games etc.
Note that MIDIrip does not un-zip (-pak, -arc, -zoo...) anything,
so you can not use MIDIrip to extract MIDI files from compressed
archives.
Basically MIDIrip searches for the text string 'MThd'. When the
string is found MIDIrip performs some additional checks to verify
that the string really is part of a MIDI header and not a random
string that theoretically can be found in any (large) file.
MIDIrip saves the extracted files as MIDI files named 0001.mid
, 0002.mid, ...., 9999.mid. Possibly you would run out of
directory entries before reaching 9999 files but...
Oh by the way... No warranties. If the computer goes crunch then
that's too bad for you, because I couldn't care less.
