I have attached a somewhat more complete version of your demo. I have tested 
it only in the most cursory way, but on my machine I can run csd files with 
it, stop them, and restart them. Also I seem to be able to send rt events. 
Haven't tested the function table stuff. If it doesnt work, let me know and 
I will debug it.

Note:

No need to store the .csd file -- only its filename.

Csound MUST perform in a separate thread -- the API gives a function for 
starting one. The methods for doing this in this demo are similar to the 
ones that I use in CsoundVST and I haven't been able to get it to work any 
other way. You have been warned.

csoundInputMessage appears to work for rt events, csoundScoreEvent appears 
not to work. Don't know why.

The paths to libraries etc. in the Dev-C++ project file will be wrong for 
you; you will need to fix them to use the project, but you may be able to 
compile the fl_controller.cpp file using SConstruct or your own makefile.

Note that I used std:: collections where possible.

I have booked the controller into CVS so if you want to change it, if you 
aren't a Csound developer, ask John ffitch to make you one and fix the file 
yourself; if this is too much trouble go ahead and change it and email your 
new version to me.

Thanks Michael. Note to everyone else, this is a completely new thing 
for me, I am more than happy to learn if parts of it are done wrong, 
poorly, etc, and how they could be improved. I have no particular 
attachment to how I did things, just wanted to get stuff happening! = )
