For saving patch dumps, it's pretty simple:

   cat /dev/midi0 > patch.syx

[ hit patch or bank dump on evolver ... wait until it's done, hit ^C ]

To send it back to the evolver:

   cat patch.syx > /dev/midi0

:-)

The demo version of the sound-tower editor seems to run under wine,
though the machine I tried it on doesn't actually have a midi card so I
couldn't test the midi I/O (and it gave lots of warnings about "no midi
interface found").
