Not really

msh = load_gmsh2('a.msh', [])

Then:

% msh.POS(i,j) - j'th coordinate of node i (j in 1:3, i in 1:msh.nbNod)
% msh.ELE_NODES(i,j) - Nodes of element i (j in 1:k, with
%                       k = msh.NODES_PER_TYPE_OF_ELEMENT(msh.ELE_INFOS(i,2)))

Those are the Outputs solicited. How to manage them if there are different 
types of elements is another mater...
