New description:

 I would like to have some software that supports MIDI files. (Quick Time 7
 does that to some extent.)

 Many people recommended timidity, a software last modified in 2004, but
 apparently still OK and HomeBrew packages it:
   * https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-
 core/blob/master/Formula/timidity.rb

 Just in case it's relevant (and easier to use in MP), google led me to a
 much simpler version of the same formula (for the same version of the
 software):
    *
 https://github.com/KDAB/Homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/timidity.rb

 The sourceforge is currently experiencing problems, but this is the
 homepage:
    * http://timidity.sourceforge.net/

 Here's a link to sources and PPC binaries for a Cocoa GUI (which need a
 bit more time to look into):
    * http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~gb7t-ngm/timidity/download.html

 I would be grateful if someone would look into this, but I'll probably try
 to come up with something if nobody else does, I just need more time and
 wanted a reminder with links.
