| It would be really great if both versions could ship with the windows
installer as happens on OSX. Like you said, a simple batch file could
be executed from the Csound command menu whenever someone wants to
change between versions. It could for instance be set to doubles by
default. I still have my reservations with regards to using doubles
for realtime performance. The downside to my paranoia is me having to
build csound myself.
