I guess on Windows you could use anonymous pipes.

can do this development, albeit slowly since I don't seem to have much free
time.

My wishes...

I've been playing around with developing a GUI wrapper for the synth using
tcl/tk.  My approach has been to open the synth using a command pipeline

and

interact with it using the command shell interface.  Two things I had to

change

for this two work are a) put in a call to fflush(stdout) just before

readline()

in iiwu_cmd.c, b) disable the prompt (my wish is for a command-line option

to

set the prompt string).  Re: the prompt -- when provided it should be

handled

using the parameter to readline() and not a printf().

I'll be happy to submit patches for these two changes if there are no
objections.

Please do send the patches. Both changes are welcome (the printf() of
the prompt is really bad.)

Are you happy with a communication over stdin/stdout or would a TCP/IP
connection be more useful?

Hello,

Two things we could change without much effort before the first stable
release:
- File structure: Would it make sense, to move all files, which belong
to the iiwusynth executable, into a folder of their own (for example
'application', if no better name is found).
- Command line options: 'c' for number of fracments and 'z' for
'bufferz'. Hmmm... For the sake of consistency, should we change -m/-M
to -e/-E (for 'Meedee')? :)
Now would be a good opportunity to clean that up.

Cheers

Markus
