Protocols

TISM is able to have différent kind of inputs and outputs (ex Midi, keyboard, network...).
A I/O protocol defines how and where the messages are read and written, from and to the outside world.
Each protocol needs specials parameters (ex: device file).

TISM supports different protocols :

• Input protocols
  • MIDI standard (OSS) : protocol = midioss, param = midi device file (ex : /dev/midi)
  • MIDI standard (ALSA) : protocol = alsamidiraw, param = alsa midi device file (ex : hw:0,0)
  • KEY (for the keyboard) : protocol = key, param = keyboard device file (ex : /dev/tty)
• Output protocols
  • MIDI (OSS) : protocol = midioss, param = midi device file (ex : /dev/midi)
  • MIDI (ALSA) : protocol = alsamidiraw, param = alsa midi device file (ex : hw:0,0)
