hi...

i just wanted to anounce that i finally got round to
do some work on the good old fst.

Fixed most cavaets, included the vestige header.
So this is GPL stuff now. binary packages welcome.

get it via git:   git clone git://repo.or.cz/fst.git

the homepage: http://www.joebutton.co.uk/fst/

perhaps some of he info is still valid :S

-----------------------------------------------------------

Its only a matter of make if your on 32bit.

for lash suport:
make -f Makefile.lash 

On 64bit you need to have some 32bit libraries:
gtk libs and alsa, perhaps a 32bit lash
you also need to make sure a link ending with .so
exists for each library. there were some problems
with that before.

Also on 64bit jack-0.116.0 is required because fst is
a 32bit client.

i hope for packagers to jump in on this fast.
so that people are not having to wade through 32bit dependency hell.
The current version in git is very likely to become
fst-1.11  (schnaps is better than wine)



Due to the fact that the embeding and gtk bugging is fixed now,
i have a gtk window around the plugin now, where i can put buttons
and stuff. So midi learn and stuff is not far away anymore.


jack-midi is planned, and should show up in the git soon.
But this is orthogonal to the "hunt me down not working plugins"
request. 

well... blabla... try to find a plug that does not work !!!
