Topic: Feature request: List Presets on linux commandline

I like the possibilities of commandline options that are available in the Linux version of Pianoteq.

On my system (Linux Fedora 12) I have created a symbolic link from the location of my Pianoteq binary to /usr/bin/pianoteq.
Now I can simply type "pianoteq" on my commandline to call Pianoteq.

I often use something like

pianoteq  --midi example.mid \
                --wav example.wav \
                --rate 44100 \
                --headless \
                --preset NAME

The fact that, writing this message, I can't remember what exactly to put in place of "NAME" behind the --preset option is typical. This happens to me all the time using the commandline.

This leads to my feature request. I would like to see a commandline option "--list-presets" or something like that. It should print a list of all available preset names to standard out. Can't be that difficult to implement in a future version?

What do you think?

Not a bad idea.. in the meantime, this could work for your custom presets..

ls ~/.local/share/Modartt/Pianoteq35/Presets

I'm guessing on the Pianoteq35 folder, because my linux box at home only has 3.0 installed, and the presets folder is empty there..

Of course, this wouldn't list the built-in presets, which you very well might want to use.  So a --list-presets option would be better.
