Hi !

I have been trying to swap from ZynAddSubFX to Yoshimi for a while, and I finally figured out today that it wouldn't compile with fltk2.
Being a gentoo user, I had no trouble getting another version of fltk (1.1.9) on top of the existing one, even if I dont like much the idee.

As far as I'm aware FLTK2 is still labeled "experimental", with no indication
of when it might reach "stable". With yoshimi, I'd rather not chase after the
intermittent progress of an unstable api still in development.
Yoshimi is now working well, and I realized that there is no runtime option to lauch it without a GUI, as there was in ZynAddSubFX, nor compile-time option to avoid linking to fltk.
This is a trouble for me, as I am using a headless audio system, where everything is run from command line and, when I try to run Yoshimi in a shell without X, I only get : "can't open display:"

I'm ok with reinstating the --no-gui command line option, which should give
you what you need, right?

CHeers.
