The reason the files are not being imported is because the orchestras do not
have a "nchnls" variable in the orchestra header. This is perfectly legal and
when this variable is absent Csound defaults the number of channels to 1.
However, Cecilia needs this variable in order to load the orchestra in the
correct editor pane. When it is absemt , Cecilai should assign it to "1" and
carry on from there. THis is therefor a bug, and its a bug I did'nt know about.
Thanks!
