I downloaded the .tar.gz file and reconstituted the contents under 
Windows 95 using WinZip 
(http://tucows.rucc.net.au/awinzip/wztucow0.htm)

I have not looked at it in detail, but the index is especially 
welcome!

I understand that John Fitch's next release will include my ugrw1 and 
ugrw2 ugens, details of which are below.

Assuming that this goes ahead, how can I contribute documentation of 
these to the new manual project?  

Could you explain what software you are using to generate the HTML, 
RTF, ASCII and Postscript versions of the manual?

I can use a Mac if this is required, but would be happier to do it
under Win3.1/95 or Linux.

ugrw1
-----

1 - Table write ugen - for writing directly into function tables at i
    k or a rates - with i or k rate control of the table number. (See
    tabread.doc for krate control of table reading ugens in my ugens2.c.)  

2 - Ugens for manipulating data in tables: tablegpw, tableleng, 
    tablemix and tablecopy.

3 - Ugens for reading and writing to table locations sequentially 
    from a rate variables.

4 - Patching of i, k and a rate signals based on numbers generated at
    i or k rate.  This is called the "zak" system.

5 - Simple ugens to read the time elapsed since the start of the 
    piece or the initialisation of the instrument.  Could be mighty
    handy. Also intended to be a lasting part of Csound if people like
    them.

6 - Two ugens for printing k rate variables as numbers on the screen.
   

ugrw2
-----


1 - kport Like port, except the half time can be controlled at k
    rate.

2 - ktone, katone, kreson and kareson Like tone, atone, reson and 
    areson except:
    a - They work with k rate signals instead of a rate.
    b - For kreson and kareson, the default for iscl is 1.

3 - limit ilimit  These set upper and lower limits on i, k or a rate 
    variables.
