           Summary: Midi support for turn page.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

As pianist I found very handy to turn pages via midi (foot controller / breath
controller - hands free).

I referring to midi cc messages (connection via alsa or
jack-audio-connection-kit or osc [open sound control]).

Turn page can respond to user-defined 'midi cc' values. I suggest for defaults
cc 16 for next page and 17 for previous page. (see p. 6
http://www.midi.org/techspecs/midi_chart-v2.pdf )

Midi data usually (or accidentally by the player) are continuous, so the midi
data stream must be evaluated. You can simulate midi data cc's with programs
'vmpk' and 'gmidimonitor'. You can connect the midi stream between applications
with cli 'aconnect' or via GUI with 'qjackctl'.

(excuse my English)
