TOOT 14 is about CSDs. There are links in the Csound page, I think
to csounds.com. Most people will come to the toots page from the
Csound page.

Nice Toot14 Victor

- you might think about adding a toot15 now that shows them the  
CsOptions tag and tells them about the recommended sr and commandline  
options for the XO - and then... - with a link to the entire .zipped  
collection, show them how to run them from the terminal on the XO  
and.....we are in pretty great shape tootorial-wise....  Then, with  
Jim Aikin coming onboard to look at them from the eyes of an  
incredibly experienced user/editor/reviewer/teacher (and add other  
links for reference and further info - it will be awesome.
