Dear list, Because I quite like some of the new features (especially the array appending) and quite like the Mini I tried ripping out the "chuck" bit of the Mini source, putting in the new version and compiling (Ubuntu, latest long term support version, up to date, I could look up details if needed). As far as I could see this works perfectly (so far...), no need at all to be burdened by any knowledge of C. Still, my current series of experiments could benefit a great deal from linking editor windows to shred ID's so I tried the same with the Audicle and got some errors that made it quite clear I'd need to know C/C++ in some detail to deal with them. So, first of all; the adventurous might like to try their hand at this and have a updated Mini (the "about" dialogue even reports the correct ChucK version, nice). Secondly, should the Audicle take such abuse? I feel this would be quite nice but there might be hard questions? Would it be a idea to use something like colour coding of window-headers (or some similar graphical element) to link editor buffers to running shreds in the Mini? I think that would be very nice as a help in livecoding. Like most people I can keep track of about 7 or so things at a time and the link between editor buffers and shred ID's that was steablished 15 minutes ago tends to be one of the things that gets lost.... Yours, Kas.
