NAME
     mididelete - tclmidi command to delete an event or events in a MIDI song

SYNOPSIS
     mididelete MidiID track event

     mididelete MidiID track file ... "range" start end

DESCRIPTION
     mididelete is a tclmidi(1) command that deletes one or more events from a
     specified track in a MIDI song.  The first argument is a MIDI song
     descriptor as returned by midimake(n) or midiread(n).  The second
     argument is the track in the MIDI song.  In the first form, the third
     argument is a specific event to remove.  For formatting of events, see
     midievents(n).

     In the second form, the third argument is the string "range".  The fourth
     argument is then the start time of events to be delete and the last
     argument is the end time of the range.  All events starting at time start
     up to but not including events at time end are then deleted.

RETURN VALUES
     mididelete returns a 1 if the event or events were successfully removed,
     or 0 if, in the first case, the event could not be found.
