BTW, I've started hacking on patch to ghostess

LASH support. I realize now that it's not a very good idea,
considering the "configuration" file ghostess writes out. Do you have
any plans on changing that or the initial configuration code before I
spend any more time on it?
Oh dear. Yes, ghostess is the ugliest piece of code I've written
(not counting some early BASIC efforts), and certainly the
ugliest I've ever released. I started with Chris and Steve's
perfectly reasonable jack-dssi-host code, and quickly hacked
in one feature I needed, then another, and again and again,
until it's half bailing wire and duct tape.
I'd love to rewrite it, but all of the scant development time
I manage to find these days is going into WhySynth. I don't
see that changing any time soon.
Sorry, folks,
