Ever get tired of opening an editor buffer and starting:

sr = 44100
kr = .....

Blah blah blah.
Takes minutes before you get your first beep out of Csound.
I finally wrote a little script that automates the tedious part.
I call it 'cs' and put it in /usr/local/script.  You give it
an argument which is the name of a directory that it will create.
It puts a basic orc and sco inside with a Makefile that will generate
a beep.

So if you have a quick idea to try out with csound, it is very fast
to just go:
	
	cs foo

and then go into foo and tweek the vanilla orc and sco.
