[linux-audio-user] fluidsynth shell commands

[Gerrit Niestijl]

Hi,

Thanks a lot, that works! Is there also a way to send the commands in
filename.sh to an already running instance of fluidsynth? That would
open the possability to write a script in scala and tune a running
fluidsynth from within scala.
