Okies. Can't say i understand you objecting to something you don't

why a standalone version, because it's standalone.
no need for jack, jack-dssi-host, an easy to use jack capture program,
or a fully fledged DSSI host sequencer.
just the app, alsa and a keyboard. it lowers the bar for entry into
the world of linux audio.
not everyone is a dyed in the wool, kernel patching, source compling,
terminal using linux wizard.
don't need it?, don't use it ;)

NB: i'm only working on an interface. i'm not the author of the
standalone app or the (unreleased) DSSI plugin.
do you still
object to it's presence even if you don't use or look at
it?
Yeah, i probably still object to it's presence. What is the point of a
standalone version? What is wrong with just using jack-dssi-host? If
you want a standalone version, you can just have a script,
jack-dssi-host myplugin called myplugin for people to run. Though the
other idea sounds nice. Easy to skin widgets with lots of
functionality are great. Maybe you can merge them into libphat? It's
specifically for that purpose, though i don't know Pete's plans for
it.
