Usage?

Hi. Maybe a stupid question, but, how do you actually use the program? The installation instructions are clear enough, but I'm not sure what to do once the thingie is built.

Thanks!

Same question... how to use?

I maybe can help with this issue but it should be opened until the README is updated with more informations.

The usage after succesfull installation with python2 should start with the command

(.pb) ~/punchbox>punchbox --help

The help returns more informations about the usage. If you have a midi file mymidi.mid the following command will convert it:

(.pb) ~/punchbox>punchbox mymidi.mid

but be carefull if your midi doesn't uses the full range of your musicbox the transpose might change the outcome because the best_transpose is always the highest. You might also want to change the punchbox.yaml file, because your musicbox has different settings, than the 35note (I could actually find a musicbox with this name.).
