I'm too unexperienced to read the API.
I know that audacity uses portaudio to make it a cross

platform application. So, it's certainly a good idea, but

unfortunately, portaudio is even not a soundserver but an

audio abstraction layer.
I'm not looking for a cross platform layer but at first at a

common unix audio server.
As soon as we have one, then it might be a good idea to move

portaudio as a further layer between audio applications and

the new layer to make them possibly compile cross platform.
