Hello,

I have several questions regarding CM/Grace:

- when should you used SAL and when should you use Scheme? Although SAL seems 
to be the official CM programming language,
most examples are in Scheme. I personally prefer C-like languages, but it is 
sometimes difficult to convert Scheme to SAL and vice-versa.

- what’s the equivalent of 'with-sound' in SAL? 'with-sound() do stochastic(0, 
1, 440, .1)’, for example? I have tried the latter command,
but it silently returns an empty list.

- is there a way to display the snd editor in Grace, other than using the 
with-sound command?

- is there a sndlib tutorial, [other than the manual 
(https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/snd/snd/sndscm.html#withsound) which is 
not too newbie-friendly]?

- is there a way to set the Grace Working Directory once and for all? Grace for 
Mac keeps forgetting that directory. I have noticed a menu item
to set the Init File, but what should you put in that file?

- why were objects abandoned in CM3?

Many thanks.

Philippe
