You can try my hack at <URL: http://crism.maden.org/music/swing.ly >,
which may or may not suffice for your purposes. It only works on
eighth-notes and -rests, and only works if pairs are beat-aligned. This
means that any dotted quarters, e.g., must be re-written as quarter
notes tied to eighth notes, and an eighth note pick-up (anacrucis) must
be rewritten as an eighth rest and eighth note.
