Lots of nice little fixes and features. See the web page for details.

Good job. A small problem, though...

You use tempfile.mkstemp, which creates a temp file. Then you use the name for output file. This will be opened later, and since the temp file already exists MMA generates a message:

Overwriting existing midi file (12 bars, 0.40 min / 0:23 m:s): '/tmp/MMA_1t45x9r1.mid'

If you do not want to use tempfile.mktemp (for good reasons) it may be worth to consider something similar to:

    f = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(prefix="MMA_", suffix=".mid")
    outfile = f.name
    f.close            # file will be deleted

Should some complain that the output file is opened twice, you can blame python .

Yes, I think the problem with all this: mkstemp() only opens for read, not "rwb". But let look when I get back in a few days ... gotta wedding to go to
