I have yet to figure out what to do with it since I can't seem to
get the documentation to compile... but there is a midi module on
the python.org site:
http://www.python.org/download/Contributed.html

and do a search for "midi".

I am using python in a different musical fashion: generating csound
scores. I hope to eventually make my "pysco"  module support
multiple types of output including midi devices and midi files (to
do that I will probably use the above-mentioned midi module once I
figure it out).
