Look under src/scripts and you'll find example code showing you how to do it
in Python, Perl and C.
The Python one includes a FlightGear.py module that makes the telnet part
pretty transparent.
Example :
============================
from FlightGear import FlightGear
fg = FlightGear('localhost', 2222)
# write operation
# parking brake on
fg['/controls/parking-brake'] = 1
# read operation
heading = fg['/orientation/heading-deg']
============================
