[PD] Interapplication MIDI communication in Linux?

dear linux-pd gurus

Does anyone have experience in sending MIDI from one application to
another under linux?  Specifically, I would like fiddle with keykit and send
MIDI data to pd.  Keykit has support for alsa (but since I don't have a MIDI
interface for my PC I can't even test if the MIDI is getting anywhere but I get
no error messages so I assume all is fine...  stupid, huh?...).

I was thinking that perhaps MidiShare <www.grame.fr/MidiShare> would do such
tricks (it does in MacOS, anyways) but I don't even even know if it can coexist
with alsa.  Any ideas???

thanks
