I had to laugh at this.  Every once in a while, I will search to see if
there are any new LADSPA or LV2 plugins.  I often see plugins described
by their mathematical function, with NO hint of what it actually does.

i guess the perpetrator is tim goetze of CAPS, he has a few distortion plugins that go by names like "atan" and friends. while i don't use CAPS daily because the types of music i work on rarely need it, i consider his suite and its documentation just excellent, for those users who want to gain some basic understanding of what they are doing. users that don't can just buy guitar rig or a set of colorful stomp boxes and be done with it.
