just to further exhaust this topic, i tested oscil and oscili against oscil3 at
three different table sizes.  (5, 257, and 1025)  at 5, oscil outputs a square
wave, oscili outputs a triangle wave, and oscil3 outputs a sine wave with
points at the maximum and minimum.
at 257, oscili outputs a sine wave with an added freq at 12800 hz, while oscil3
outputs a very clean sine wave.  at 1025, there is virtually no difference that
i or my software (cool edit pro) was able to distinguish.

below is a modifed version of the work that greg posted earlier.  BTW, i love
the new .csd format.  it is so much easier to use for standard things.
