Er, I hope I didn't insinuate that.
Apologies for the dev-ish talk below...
I think users having trouble should file a bug report to the author
Kieran Koster. He's a renoise dev and from what I know of him from the
renoise forum a serious and friendly soul.
And I the dev's of linux hosts should get in contact with the guy. It
might be glitch2 doing something wrong, it might be the host.
Please don't get offended, political or take this personal, but:
Can't we please not start the closed vs open source linux software war. Here's a guy that decides to make a linux
compatible version 2 of a very
famous plugin, couldn't we work *with* this guy?
Agreed.
Having limited time, just one guy with so many plugins, I tend to take a sort
of pragmatic approach where I try to just 'make them work' and move on.
You know, sort of try and "welcome all plugins one and all".
But Paul made an excellent point recently that such 'kludgery', just to
be able to say "I can load all plugins", is bad and encourages mistakes
and bad practices, either mine or the plugin dev's, to be propagated.
But it's hard to resist, sheer curiosity to make some plugins work, eh :)
Not to mention, what is 'proper', when instructions themselves may be vague?
Cheers.
Tim.
