# wrk2mid: Cakewalk to Standard MIDI Files Translator

wrk2mid is a command line utility for translating WRK (Cakewalk) files into MID (standard MIDI files) based on [Drumstick](https://drumstick.sourceforge.io/docs/index.html) (a set of GPLv3 licensed C++/Qt libraries for MIDI applications).

## Building

Minimum requirements:

* C++17 compiler
* [Qt6 or Qt5](https://www.qt.io/download)
* [Drumstick 2.9](https://sourceforge.net/projects/drumstick/)
* [pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) (optional, if BUILD_DOCS)
* [CMake 3.16](https://cmake.org/)

### Build and deployment commands (for Linux)

```sh
tar xvf wrk2mid-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd wrk2mid-x.y.z
mkdir build
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$HOME/Qt5;$HOME/drumstick2"
cmake --build build
cmake --install build
```

You need to replace the contents of the parameter CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH with the actual paths in your system. There are precompiled packages at Sourceforge.
See the [CMake documentation](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/guide/user-interaction/index.html#introduction) for details.

You may use Qt6 or Qt5 to build this program. If you prefer Qt5, then you should include in the cmake command line the argument USE_QT5=ON

### Packaging notes

This program is not a GUI application, obviously. It is a command line application. The reason why there is a `wrk2mid.desktop` file is because it is required to build an AppImage. If you are building another type of distribution package, you probably should omit this file.
