AttachmentsNone  None  
I am finding the GEN plugin interface quite useful and I am glad it's
there. There are a couple of limitations, however:
 
1. inhibiting rescaling can't be done by normal means, because
the GENS are named not numbered. There is a work-around.
 
2. strings can't be used in the p-fields because the single slot
is already taken by the GEN name. Nothing can be done until
multiple strings are allowed per score statement.
 
 
The work-around for 1 is to add a code to one of the p-fields and
then reassign the GEN number (p4) to -1 as in
 
if(resc!=0.0) ff->e.p[4] = -1;
 
A bit of a hack but it seems to work without any problems.
 
I have slightly modified the tanh GEN in ftest.c and added an
exp GEN to it (only last month when I needed to lookup an
exponential function on a table I realised there wasn't a GEN
for it).
 I also realised there is no documentation on named GENs and
on the plugin gens, so I guess I'll have to write it.

I think that the scoregens/top.xml is wrong about the names.  I think
that plugin creates a score macro for the gen name rather than using
a string.  Or has that changed?

I am not sure; all I know is that instead of a GEN number, I use a
string for the GEN name. I haven't looked at the internals.
