Hi Istvan,

Thanks for the tip with tigoto; I didn't think of it that way as the
legato instruments I had put together need to know last note status
for doing it's envelopes correctly and so I never really used tigoto
and instead used tival.  For this case though it seems quite handy!

As for ftgentmp, I'm not sure what to do with non-automatic numbers. 
I've never used ftgen  with a requested ftable number as I think it's
usefulness lies in auto-generating an ftable number and referencing
the returned table number from instruments by variable name, which is
descriptive. Since I can't even imagine a reason to use requested
ftable numbers, I'm not sure what one would want to do in this case. 
Maybe ftgentmp shouldn't take in a requested table number at all and
use 0 in the underlying call to hfgens always?
