I create virtual ports with the snd-virmidi command, and these are diplayed as "Virtual Raw MIDI 2-x" in acconectgui. In sendmidi, they appear as "VirMIDI 2-x". Nothing happens with either of these commands:
$ sendmidi virt "VirMIDI 2-0" on 60 100
$ sendmidi dev "VirMIDI 2-0" on 60 100
The Virtual MIDI port is connected to both Fluidsynth and aseqdump to monitor events. The virtual port is working because I can send MIDI there with amidi; for example:
$ amidi -p hw:2,0 -S "90 3C 7F"
plays a note. (Port hw:2,0 is Virtual Raw MIDI, 0.)

IMPORTANT: Apple changed the default shell from bash to zsh. This video refers to the file .profile that needs to be edited. Instead of .profile, use .zprofile which is what zsh uses.
