In latest git head, there is a "synth.default-soundfont" option.
The fluidsynth executable uses it if you have not specified a midi
file but not a soundfont on the command line.
I am using fluidsynth as a library in a gstreamer plugin. Therefore it's
me who has to configure the synthfont to use. If we don't want to do
such a specification (of a sf2 path), this could also be inmplemented in
fluidsynth as a utility function. That spares apps to re-implement this.
Not sure exactly what you want such a utility function to do? Look for
soundfonts in a set of directories?
The fluid_settings_getstr("synth.default-soundfont") gives you a
filename that you can present to the user as a first soundfont
suggestion - that the user should be able to override, of course.
