<div>I'm wondering how to get a list of midiout devices without GUI.</div>
<div>This has to work without GUI.</div>

<div>I tried [mediasettings/midisettings] but it always report 0 devices (both in and out) when there is no GUI.</div>
<div>i also know the -listdev option to Pd, but this only list devices in console, and I need to proccess the number in the patch.</div>
