With Reaper 5.33pre1 and up, a simpler solution is now ready to use.
Head down to
post #21 to find the script, readable and downloadable.

Can we send midi messages without having to use OSCII-bot ?
I have to use an external program to send a specific midi message out from inside a LUA script to do what I want to do.
This sucks. Extra complexity. This is hardly time critical stuff, so LUA would be fine, or EEL if necessary.
OSCII-bot is seriously complex because it supposes the user has a lot of information up front.
So, can we do this yet ? We can send OSC messages, but MIDI ?
