If you use Linux, install vmpk.

Then run vmpk, and in its file menu, select "Import Soundfont".  It will write a text file having all the instrument names.

Hi Kjetil,

Thanks for the immediate response. libgig and the code sample really looks
good, simple and easy. However, libgig is under the GPL license. Our
software is a commercial software where we use the libfluidsynth library
strictly under the LGPL license. libgig does not offer the LGPL license but
only the GPL license which we therefore cannot use.

It's probably not much work parsing the soundfont files manually...
Here's the spec: http://www.synthfont.com/sfspec24.pdf
It's a common RIFF structure. In my experience, writing code to read
and write riff files directly are often faster than trying to
understand a 3rd party API.
