It is supposed to create a window displaying a MIDI keyboard that can be used to send MIDI messages to other applications via JACK, but it does nothing at all. I tried to debug this but I cannot seem to find the cause. Now that we have “jack-keyboard”, which works just fine, I’m thinking about just removing “vmpk”. What do you think? Any objections? ~~ Ricardo
