Forrest --
Yikes, sorry 'bout that! We retired the old "makegen" code quite awhile
ago. I didn't realize there were still links to it that people were
using! RTcmix is still very much alive and well, known-to-but-a-few. :-)
It's morphed into a library that is presently embedded for use inside
OpenFrameworks, iOS, Max/MSP, Unity (been working with it in Unity for
about 1.5 years, it's *really* fun!), and of course still standalone.
We moved to a completely new server system in the Music Department here at
Columbia, and it looks like the older RTcmix documentation got blitzed in
the process. I have a copy of it all and can put it back on-line if people
are clamoring for it.
In the meantime, CSOUND still uses this older system (CSOUND and
RTcmix/cmix share a common ancestor), and this may answer your questions
about how the GEN routines work:

At http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/program/ugen_full.html#GenX, there is a reference to RTCmix which uses an obsolete link so some sort of half-forgotten documentation (redirects to http://sites.music. columbia.edu/cmc/RTcmix/). The current doc is at http://rtcmix.org/ but it appears that the makegen command is now obsolete. The closest I could find is http://rtcmix.org/reference/scorefile/maketable.php , the apparent replacement, which contains a broken link to an old makegen page.
Not sure it matters, but it should probably be cleaned up. I personally appreciate the link to RTCmix because I'd never heard of it before, but it could probably be made to not be a link, or simply removed.
