That probably would have been rezound, which by the way has been fixed, 
and has been fixed for quite some time.  So not only are you trash 
talking software that you havent reported the bugs on, but you are doing 
so on bugs that had been fixed and a patch availiable for quite a while.

Since Rezound used FOX before and is in the process of being ported to 
QT, I would wager a strong guess this is Sweep that is being referred to 
here.

But can spend that time making fun of it instead...

Because some people enjoy having the choice, and dont agree that your 
wave editor is the best for them.  Glad to know that because alsaplayer 
works, there is no reason that anyone might want to use a different one.
