Hmm.. Not sure what you mean by dump.. Could you provide an example script?

The most common with recent liquidsoap would be a combination of
variable reference and command registration, something like:

s = ref ""

server.register("get", fun (_) -> !s)
server.register("set", fun (value) -> s := value)

If you need for instance an integer or a float value, then you will
have to convert back and forth from string format using
float_of_string and the like..

Hope this helps,
Romain
