Hi Iain,

I wrote an instrument that listens to MIDI Timing Clock messages.
Here's what I did: 

kstatus, kchan, kdata1, kdata2	midiin
kstatus = (kstatus != 0 ? (kstatus + kchan - 1) : kstatus) ; correct kstatus

Then see if kstatus == 248 (or 0xF8) and if it does, it's a Timing
Clock Message.  You could transmit messages with a status byte of 248
to sync up external hardware.  You might want to look into other
messages like:

0xFA // Start
0xFC // Stop

Hope this helps,

Davis
