It's annoying to skim the list digests when the subject lines don't match the content. > On Jun 14, 2010, at 1:35 PM, Kim Cascone wrote: >> >> the reason I'm devoting a lot of my energy to figuring out the [plugin~] >> external is because I'm editing the LADSPA chapter in the FOSS Pd manual >> online --> >> >> http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/PureData/UsingLADSPAplugins >> >> and I want to make sure the text is a) true and b) easily understood by a >> n00b This is where I think things should always go ... to the wiki or the Floss manual! If a solution is found, pleasepleaseplease post it to a standard place and then *everyone* can benefit and we don't get the same questions every 6 months.
