   Description     : MIDI functions for Octave

This package provides MIDI functionality for Octave, a numerical 
computation software.  Three types of functions are provided: (1) 
functions that directly allow opening, sending and receiving MIDI 
messages, (2) functions that provide a layer on top of the device 
functions for using MIDI controls, and (3) basic functions that allow 
read and write of MIDI files.

This Octave add-on package is part of the Octave-Forge project and 
will be maintained in the realm of the Debian Octave Group.  A 
preliminary version of the package is available in 
https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-octave-team/octave-audio and can be built 
using git-buildpackage.
