[LAU] polarbear (zplane editor) on recent gcc's?

[andersvi at notam02.no]

Has anyone compiled Maarten de Boer's "polarbear" on recent compilers?

I just downloaded polarbear-0.5.3 from
http://www.resorama.com/maarten/files/polarbear-0.5.3.tgz.  While
compiling it complains about some things i beleive are related to the
version of the compiler.  Hacking it slightly, the app seems to run ok,
adressing jack correctly.

Ive got some questions about the edit-menu - select, cut, copy... - but
am unsure whether ive got a fully functional copy up, and dont know how
they are meant to behave.

Maarten de Boer, maybe you are out there?

Polarbear functions similarly to a sorely missed app from the old
NeXT's, an interactive z-plane editor (ive forgotten the name, but i
beleive it was setup by someone at ccrma) where coefficients were made
available in the clipboard after manipulating the filter in the gui.

Maybe there are other similar tools around?

Thanks,
