DESCRIPTION
       dssi_osc_send sends DSSI OSC methods to DSSI applications.
       dssi_osc_send is typically used to control DSSI hosts (possibly for
       scripted operation), or to test DSSI user interfaces.

OPTIONS
       -c     Send a `control' message.  Requires two values to be supplied in
              the <values> section: control port and value.  For example, to
              set control port 1 to 0.1:
                dssi_osc_send -c <OSC URL> 1 0.1

       -p     Send a `program' message.  Requires two values to be supplied in
              the <values> section: bank and program number.  For example, to

       -C     Send a `configure' message. The <values> are the key and value
              pair. For example, to send key `load' and value
              `/tmp/patches.pat':
                dssi_osc_send -C <OSC URL> load /tmp/patches.pat
