That's probably one of the most asked questions at the Csound
conference. The answer is that most end-users will notice no
difference whatsoever. The language won't change and how you run
Csound won't change. It's all about changes under the hood. Actually,
there is one new feature it adds, and that's the ability to run Csound
on multiple processors, although one can't use any channel or zak
opcodes for the time being.

Rory.

The new parser also supports the until loop, and I have it parsing a new
vector/array data type.  It also should be more robust in odd cases,  I
would also like two-argument functions which is next to impossible in the
old parser.  Always anoyed me that atan2 was not a function.

As Rory says end-users should not notice the difference when we get the
wrinkes ironned out, but making the parser re-entrant has significance for
API users and other frontend-like builders.

So do not worry -- should be backward compatible.  Would do it all now but
it is time for breakfast.
