Yes, by all means rename it to CSOUND.

You have never indicated your opinion of my frequent suggestion to make CSOUND a real C++ class and all the function pointers would just be virtual member functions. As I have said before there is a good alias between C functions and C++ functions if the C++ class is a completely virtual class. 

I am completely confident that this would make Csound easier to maintain and extend without any untoward side effects. The C API would simply be an alias for the C++ class.

What do you think?

Regards,
Mike

So, should I rename the structure to CSOUND ?

It is now renamed to CSOUND (struct CSOUND_).

What is the major problem with having a C interface ?
