Hi All,

I wanted to give an update on today's progress on the new parser.  I
had not been working on it too much the past few weeks as a number of
other things came up but also I had been quite stuck on a parsing
problem that had really odd audible results and was very hard to
track.  I had thought for a while it was a problem with evaluating
divisions, but in the end it turned out to be that intype and pftype
on the INSTRTXT pointer were not being set, therefore opcodes with
thread 7 (like oscil.kk) were using a-rate versions of functions
instead of k-rate versions of functions, thus they would overwrite
their bounds for memory allocated when processing unless ksmps=1.

After finally figuring that out today, I'm very happy to say that
Xanadu and "Trapped in Convert" now seem to be compiling!  At least to
my ears there is no audible difference when running with the old
parser or the new parser.

This has actually be quite a hard bug for me to realize what was going
on, but now that that is set I hope to resume in progressing with the
parser.  Very excited!

(I'm now going to go and take the rest of the night off.  ^_^)
