Takashi Iwai included two utilities in awesfx 0.4.2, one which
dumped the metadata of a SF2 to a text file, and another
which compiled the (possibly modified) text file and original
SF2 into a new SF2.  With it you could make minor edits
to a soundfont from the command line.  As-is, it's not going
to help build a soundfont from single wave files, but it
might be a great starting point for building such a tool.
