Hi,

This is a request to add these two opcodes:

knum activeorder
turnoffnow

activeorder gives a number corresponding to the containing
instr instance's position within the active instruments
list.  In other words, it would report how old the
containing instr instance is compared to all active
instances of the same instr.  The lower the #, the older
it is.  The oldest instance would be 1.

turnoffnow behaves like turnoff, except that it doesn't
care about release envelopes.  When turnoffnow is called,
the containing instr is killed immediately.

I would just compile a library for myself, but they
require access to functions and CSOUND vars that are not
available when using csdl.h.  Also, I don't feel like
compiling Csound whenever there's a new release.

I've attached the code for the opcodes.  I don't know if
it's entirely correct.  Most of it was just cut and paste
from other pplz code.

Thanks,

Davis

Does not p2 give the start time of the instance of an instrument?

Instead of creating a whole new opcode, would it be possible just to add an
additional optional argument to "turnoff" and/or "turnoff2"? The default
could be zero to retain backwards compatibility, while a value of 1 would do
as dp51 suggested.

Best,
Jake
