NAME

6       vmpk - Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard
7

SYNOPSIS

9       vmpk [options...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This manual page documents briefly the vmpk program.
13
14       This program uses standard Qt options.
15
16       Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard is a MIDI events generator and receiver. It
17       doesn't produce any sound by itself, but can be used to drive a MIDI
18       synthesizer (either hardware or software, internal or external). You
19       can use the computer's keyboard to play MIDI notes, and also the mouse.
20       You can use the Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard to display the played MIDI
21       notes from another instrument or MIDI file player.
22

VMPK OPTIONS

24       The following options apply to vmpk only:
25
26       -h|--help
27           Displays a help text.
28
29       -v|--version
30           Displays version information.
31
32       -p|--portable
33           Enables portable settings mode using a default configuration file
34           name.
35
36       -f path/file.conf
37           This option implies --portable as well. Reads and writes
38           path/file.conf as the portable settings configuration file name.
39
40           This configuration file is always a text file with INI format,
41           despite the running Operating System conventions.
42

STANDARD OPTIONS

44       The following options apply to all Qt5/6 applications:
45
46       -style= style / -style style
47           Set the application GUI style. Possible values depend on the system
48           configuration. If Qt is compiled with additional styles or has
49           additional styles as plugins these will be available to the -style
50           command line option.
51
52       -stylesheet= stylesheet / -stylesheet stylesheet
53           Set the application styleSheet. The value must be a path to a file
54           that contains the Style Sheet.
55
56       -widgetcount
57           Print debug message at the end about number of widgets left
58           undestroyed and maximum number of widgets existed at the same time.
59
60       -reverse
61           Set the application's layout direction to Qt::RightToLeft. This
62           option is intended to aid debugging and should not be used in
63           production. The default value is automatically detected from the
64           user's locale (see also QLocale::textDirection()).
65
66       -platform platformName[:options]
67           Specify the Qt Platform Abstraction (QPA) plugin.
68
69       -platformpluginpath path
70           Specify the path to platform plugins.
71
72       -platformtheme platformTheme
73           Specify the platform theme.
74
75       -plugin plugin
76           Specify additional plugins to load. The argument may appear
77           multiple times.
78
79       -qwindowgeometry geometry
80           Specify the window geometry for the main window using the
81           X11-syntax. For example: -qwindowgeometry 100x100+50+50
82
83       -qwindowicon icon
84           Set the default window icon.
85
86       -qwindowtitle title
87           Set the title of the first window.
88
89       -session session
90           Restore the application from an earlier session.
91
92       -display hostname:screen_number
93           Switch displays on X11. Overrides the DISPLAY environment variable.
94
95       -geometry geometry
96           Specify the window geometry for the main window on X11. For
97           example: -geometry 100x100+50+50
98
99       -dialogs= [xp|none]
100           Only available for the Windows platform. XP uses native style
101           dialogs and none disables them.
102
103       -fontengine= freetype
104           Use the FreeType font engine.
