I noticed the changes are already made. However, for outvalue, would
it be a good idea if instead of using a "magic number" and appending
the value after ::, the channel name would begin with '$' (like in
the case of invalue) and the string value would be copied after the
NUL character that terminates the channel name ?

Here is an example callback function:

void outputValueCallback(CSOUND *csound, const char *channelName,
                         MYFLT value)
{
    if (channelName[0] == '$') {
      const char  *stringValue;
      channelName++;
      stringValue = &(channelName[strlen(channelName) + 1]);
      ...
    }
    ...
}
