Right.

Thank you, I didn't know about it.
Having looked at both, I think audio/metronome is way superior.
It's ~200 lines of clean, sndio-based code; ctronome is dsp via ossaudio.

The two features that ctronome has which metronome does not:
1) can use external wav file (-w) for the beeps;
metronome computes the sine wave internaly.
I don't consider it a miss really.
2) ctronome is "programmable", as in prog_example.txt
But if you need to "program" your metronome, you should
IMHO be already using a real drum machine anyway.
Some meh tweaks to metronome in a separate email.
