[PD] How to get a list of midi devices without GUI

[Antoine Villeret]

Hello,

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

I tried [mediasettings/midisettings] but it always report 0 devices (both
in and out) when there is no GUI.
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.

I observe this on Linux (both Ubuntu 12.04 64bit and Raspbian (kernel
3.10.25+) with pd 0.45-4.
But it seems to be OK on MacOS with pd 0.45-3.

Thanks

Antoine
