	Hey all, When I'm creating new opcodes, what does the OENTRY .thread member do? Does it do anything, or is it some legacy member that is unused now? I don't see it being used in the Csound source, and it doesn't seem to make a difference whether I set it to 1, 2, 3, or leave it unset, so I'm thinking it's unused. Am I missing something? ~ Andy Fillebrown

	It was used to control when the opcode would run (init, k-rate, a-rate), but it became obsolete and we have removed it now.
