because of https://github.com/csound/csound/issues/665 i came across the 
ptable opcodes (which i never used and not even knew they exist).

i see in the documentation that they were introduced for table reading 
of non-power-of-two tables, in csound 5.16.

is there still any difference to the standard table opcodes (table / 
tablei / table3)?  i seem to remember that the code in the latter was 
changed at some time to make table reading of any size possible.

thanks -
	joachim

No, there does not seem to be any difference, I think these can be deprecated. I will look into removing the code and
make them alias to table*
