Well, it's not in C, but I a class in C++ that could easily be
converted to C. It does exactly what you want. It handles all
midi messages including SysEx and SysCommon. It is loosely
based on the BeOS midikit.
Just hack off the OO ;-). Actually, just steal the parseMidi routine.
The start of the routine grabs the next available byte. Within this
routine you will see calls like:
SpraySystemExclusive(...)
SprayNoteOn(...)
etc.
These are the "delivery" routines for each parsed message.
Simply insert functions for the messages you are interested
in.
