I remember reading up on this once, and there are some later revisions
of the MIDI spec that let you specify alternative tunings for the notes
in the midi scale. But not all synths will understand the codes for these.

Hmm, from reading Mr Ekman's reply, I guess you can... :)
But still, it's a feature of the audio player (synth/sampler/whatever)
rather than the sending MIDI device.
I have a piano (I am not sure what to call a
touch sensitive 7-octave
Casio) that has 7 tunings: Equal, Just, Werckmeister-III and so on.
I try always to fit my music to the best possible temperament.
So the question: How does one specify alternative temperaments to timidity?
You can't.
