Charging in from the periphery of MIDI.... Have you considered a USB 
MIDI interface? Seems like you could write a driver for one of these 
without much effort, or maybe Linux drivers already exist.

I do all my stuff in a text editor (on a Windows box; sorry), then 
compile at the command line with gcc on the 7250. If you have Linux on a 
desktop, I believe KDevelop is a good IDE, and Eclipse is widely used. I 
haven't found time to try either of them, though.
