Sorry it was taken in an insulting way.  I have a lot of respect for

what you guys have done and do.  I would gladly pay (you) for software

that is relevant to me.
I don't think the code is a mess at all.  It runs very efficiently...I

had to master an 18 minute track and it did the processing and file

creating in around 20 seconds.  Sure, I could break things off into more

functions and name variables more descriptively.
I know it will not make money, but some of the effects, however, may be

sellable as AU or VST plug-ins.  Still, I'd rather just focus on Linux

development.
If my software is irrelevant than no one should care about the source

code, no?
If your feelings are pretty much the general feeling here then I will go.
