I suppose I've been spoiled by the Qt documentation.
Qt was a (partially) commercial product that raised significant revenue for
Trolltech and was used by developers across a broad spectrum of the
software world.
JACK is a non-commercial product that has raised (more or less) zero
revenue for anyone involved with it, and is used by a tiny niche of
developers within the already rather small world of audio software.
its fine to compare documentation and to aspire to do better, but its also
good to be realistic.
For parsing an SMF, you mean something like code that can convert midi to
text
and back again?
SMF = Standard MIDI File - its a file format (standardized, and documented)
