[sdiy] MIDI parser

[Tom Wiltshire]

I’ll give Neil J a big pat on the back too!

Not because I used his Miby code (which I’m sure is fine) but because he published his flowchart:

	https://github.com/nejohnson/miby/blob/master/doc/midi%20flowchart.pdf

I used this diagram as the basis of my own MIDI parsers, which I’ve now written in PIC ASM, dsPIC ASM30, and C. I might have tweaked it a bit along the way, but the essential structure and logic of it is Neil’s. It’s a sound foundation for your own work if you want to do the thing from the bottom up. I felt I needed to write it myself for my own satisfaction and learning, but having a roadmap to find the way made it much easier until I got to the point at which I properly understood what I was doing.

Thanks to Neil for helping get me over the hump with MIDI.
