WARNING!!
*SERIOUS* FLAME ON:
Re: Windows

 I cannot let this pass without pointing out that I have currently *five*
job offers to
basically the same thing:
Move E-commerce sites from horribly unstable and slow NT platforms & A.S.P.
to
stable, scalable and fast Unix servers and C or Perl. In all cases, NT was
chosen by
the high-level management, and was found to be inadequate after it was
deployed.
What does that say for Microsoft?

If you prefer M.S. O.Ses....well I would bet that lot of you have worked
primarily on
MS the entire time you have worked on computers. Sigh. I have worked on
well..so many OSes I cannot remember (> 8), and I find Windows to be the
least attractive of the lot. Others may disagree... but they are *wrong*.
Period.

I personally find csound under linux *much* faster than Microsoft based
platforms.

Of course, I do not do real-time. If you want to waste your $2000 box to
poorly mimic a
$500-$1000 synthesiser's sound, go ahead.
I think I have *yet* to hear a csound instrument that runs in real-time that
sounds interesting.

There is *so* much more that csound can do.
It is a pity that so many users seem to find
real-time response the be-all-and-end-all of csound work.
Gag. If I hear another MIDI realization using 3 oscs, pluck, and a
cheap-filtered-white-noise-closed-cymbal-chiff,
I think I will violently void my stomach contents.

BACK TO "DISSIN'" THE WORST OS OF ALL TIME:

If you think that hardware support is a good reason for using M.S. :
well, maybe, but ask yourself: if they *didn't* have a clear monopoly, would

this hardware support superiority exist? CLEARLY NOT. I KNOW NO PROGRAMMER
(caveat: as personal aquaintance) WHO PREFERS MS DEV. ENVIRONMENTS. Usless
they use it exclusively, and are deathly afraid of Emacs. (poor lost
souls....)

Having spent a little time recently fixing a MS VisualStudio (C++) app for a
client, I can say,
"God, I can't imagine someone who prefers this tool to gcc/gdb/emacs!!!"
So yes, I've tried it & I'M KNOCKING IT. IT SUCKS.
Please grow up as programmers, folks. Learn gnu software.

OK -
flame over. whew.

Please forgive. I wish I didn't care so much about this issue. Really.

At the risk of being off topic, I have a question about the wgflute opcode.
I've been doing a project exploring physical modelling synthesis, and, thanks
to the stuff on this list, I've already seen to stay away from wgbrass.  That's
fine, but I've been having a little bit of trouble with wgflute as well.  In an
effort to get it to just work, I've been using lines like

asig    wgflute p5, icps, 0.32, .1, .1, .15, 5.925, .05, 100

with asign being sent straight to the output.  icps is around 400, and p5 is
around 20000 (not loud enough to clip... I've had it down in the 2000 range and
it's not fixed my problems).  It sounds out of tune... like its off by a step
or two.  Does anyone know the right thing to do to get it in tune?

For our yankee friends, a snipped from a mail
I wrote to a friend:

---

Dear K.,
Yesterday I was truly too tired (no sleep in the
previous 48 hours) to make a serious reasoning.

Have you heard the news today? For a change, this
morning two "normal" US Americans entered in their
school armed and killed a lot of people, testimonies
reported that they were laughing out loud while doing
it, and targeted mostly black men and football
players.. and also (as our media said, but you never
know considering how many lyes our western media tell
us everyday) worshipping Hitler while they were shooting
all their schoolmates. 15 were killed and 20 severely
wounded. Then they suicided. Unfortunately this is
becoming pretty common in the USA.. we talked about
this yesterday night and also about depression or
other nevrotic/psychotic problems in the USA.
Well, I based my "assumptions" on many things,
including the very high percentage of people that
are under psychoanalisis in the USA, or psychiatric
therapy. Or very common episodies like this.

I very much believe that, although it really sucks,
it's not McDonald's food the cause of all this
menthal sickness. ;) It's the "democratic", "free"
and capitalist culture of the USA the cause of
all that (potential or expressed, as this morning
in that school) complete menthal insanity. You
recall the "Evil Empire" (i.e. the communist block),
where there was no freedom.. all was censored,
people were unhappy etc.. well, not wanting to
defend what I always hated too, (even more because
it was throwing shit on marxism, and was abusing
of its name and thus ruining it for any future use),
all that lack of freedom was true as much as evident.
In the USA there's no less than that shit, but it's
all _smartly_ hidden by the rulers and government.
At the risk of sounding paranoid.. they are smart,
they don't openly repress as "unexpert" dictators
may do, they instead study scientifical ways to
obtain the same (or even better) results using much
more subtle and effective means than repression.
Which never works.. and they know very well this.
Unlike some stupid third-world dictator.

I invite you to read something I wrote time ago:
http://bizzetti.hypermart.net/freedom.html

Before I say the following words, I've to say I'm
personally (for my own reasons) against drugs, i.e.
I don't use any. Yet, I think it's my own right to
decide if I want to use them or not... not my State's
"right".

The drugs subject shows much of this hidden shit:
The USA is bringing on a kind of Inquisition against
all psychotropic drugs which generate some forms of
pleasure. This modern Inquisition started in the USA
as a "puritanical" expression of the yankees society to
ban pleasure from life. The US American governments
have systematically demonised all psychotropic drugs
which can give pleasure (even alcohol was demonised but
this demonisation was not successful and was abandoned
when it was noticed that alchool was too well estabilished
in the culture and was impossible to ban, it only created
powerful figures as Al Capone). Why instead the FDA has
approved a lot of drugs that simply "turn off" emotions
and make you be like a zombie (thus "curing" depression
in a different way)? Why does the Pentagon fear such
("positive" and non-dangerous for the health) drugs that
have anti-depressive and pro-sociality effects (e.g. GHB)?
Because depression is basically a defect of sociality.
Depression is a state of lowered sociality and when
natural sociality is lowered in a human brain (for
instance through competition, etc) then this mind starts
to suffer morally. A lot of studies have shown that when
sociality is enhanced, depression vanishes. But, again,
why does the USA government fears true sanity (i.e. high
sociality, lack of paranoia, lack of aggressivity)?
Because to be a good capitalist you need to block your
sociable feelings: you should cease to consider other
human beings as human beings but just as things which
can bring you money and power. But, as we know, humans
are not machines and this doesn't quite work after a
bit, and produces severe psychosis. You have to learn to
be selfish, that is highly non-sociable. Keeping the people
paranoid (now, you probably know how many people suffer
from paranoia in the USA.. it's even in the common sense
nowadays) helps them to be anti-social (thus selfish),
which enhances "competition" and thus capitalism, but
also brings ill side-effects as boys shooting to their
schoolmates screaming "I hate niggers and football
players".. and every and all drugs (either chemical
or political) that *concretely* promote (unlike
Christianity) sociality and positive feelings towards
others have to be considered highly subversive and
thus a concrete danger against the capitalist regime,
that (through brainwashing instead of militar repression,
but also through militar repression (CIA if possible, or
non-secret army as last resort) when brainwashing fails,
thus like traditional dictatorships) is in _concrete_ less
democratic than any dictatorship. Too bad it causes a lot
of menthal insanity, unlike more traditional dictatorships
that cause simply (consciously) a feeling of lack of freedom,
but at least you're aware of it. You're free inside at least,
and ready to fight for your physical freedom.

This is why I tell you that capitalism has indeed failed,
even more than communism, although it won the economical
war against the latter. But economy is not an human thing..
this has been demonstrated by psychoanalisis and reality
many times: we're not machines, we cannot be considered
like that. Or we don't work well anymore, by all means
(including self-destruction).

Your (indeed unquestionable) objection may be that
under democracy at least the people can choose, and
this is indeed true in theory.. but since theory
without practice has no value in life, and since
they will allow democracy only as long as the people
will vote as the rich powerful men wish (otherwise
it's CIA or US Army time to fix things back to the
original state), then my objection is that with
democracy there's no choice. In places like the USA
only a big revolution could change anything.. of course
this doesn't apply to much more civil countries like
Switzerland or Sweden, or some others.

Take care,
Fabio

Hi,
Having read about cecilia in the csound magazine I thought
I would give it a try. However I cannot get the help facility
to work at all.

I have Cecilia 2.0.2 on RedHat Linux 5.0 Kernel 2.0.32.
Netscape version 4.07 is installed & I have set the
preferences to the correct paths.

The help facilities just gave a message box (conveniently
located off the top of the screen - virtual desktop to the
rescue!). This box listed what appears to be the output
of 'ps e'. I thought that the problem might be the odd way
that ps on linux truncates lines to 80 chars when not
outputing to a terminal, or the way that fvwm2 starts
some processes with doubled up slashes.
So I hacked ps to allow long lines of output & to
compress multiple consecutive '/'s.

Now any attempt to use the cecilia help results in the
program locking up (all menu items inactive), but I don't
get the message box. It doesn't matter whether I
have netscape running at the time or not.

Has anyone got any clues how to fix it?

(I can just run netscape on the help files directly so
this is not too bad a problem)

My apologies if this is on topic, perhaps I should
post to alt.wars_gibberish_and_my_os_is_better_than_yours.=20

Regards,
    Chris Osborne

I have only one comment to make: use of psycho-analysis does not necessarily mean that a person is mentally ill, unstable, or dangerous. When I lived in Europe, I had the same misconception. Living here for almost six years now, has given me a more balanced view. Most Americans are friendly and helpful individuals, but the extreme is more extreme than in the more "mellow" Europe.

Over the weekend it was pointed out that the latest versions of Csound for Windows does not run on 3.1 with Win32s like it used to. This is because I changed to MSVC5, which does not support Win32s (support was dropped after v4.1). So, in case there are any people using Win32s I have created csound_32s.zip in ftp.maths.bath.ac.uk:pub/dream/newest/ built with MSVC3. Note this was built from my test sources, so there will/may be minor differences from the manuals ==John ffitch
