Hi Massy! This is an extensive article! Thank you for that. I would probably dispute one or two points, but it would get philosophical. :-) Great work! Not only the purely technical part is interesting. In a way Nama is a DAW with a lot of usability engineering at its back. Even though the graphicaluser inte4rface isn't much used, because it's mainly us blind folks and other friend of textual interaction, there is the graphical UI. I don't know, what exactly it does offer. But you always have the choice tointeract view commands or menus and direct manipulation. Also the help system offers almost all the things one would expect. For a start a fantastic search, which a lot of commercial programs lack in this quality. One thing I would like to add to the advantages of Nama's command language: It allows experts to easily manage meta information, macros, scripts and other shortcuts. Things, which aren't natural in graphical applications. Not as natural as they come to us. :-) Well, splendid work and I'm waiting for the next bits in the series! Thank you!
