  if you want to pop up a gtk window from within cm that does what  
you want its entirely possible. it would also be simple enough to  
write, say,  a shell command that starts cm with appropriate input  
parameeters and exits after generating a midi file.

but  these days most programs  require  external libraries or have  
install scripts that provide their own that they link to dynamically.  
so "self-contained Application" is proably a myth in any language.
