[chuck] Some chuck questions.

[Adam Tindale]

Hi Everyone,

My name is Adam Tindale and I am chucK user.

I was wondering if maybe we could start a short discussion on a 
wishlist for chucK. Maybe some public comments, etc.

In response to this, I was hoping that there might be a line object 
included sometime. Something that could be easily used for break point 
functions with different interpolation between points as options.

I can't wait for synchronous and asynchronous events. I was going to 
ask about this.

Does anyone have any experience using midi in chucK? No offence Ge, but 
I would like to see a more comprehensive example involving control 
change messages and the use of different channels. My midi controller 
is broken so I can't experiment right now :(

I love distortion and would love to see a simple (or complex) 
waveshaping distortion object. This may not be necessary once arrays 
are implemented.

Also, math. I recently had a problem (a user problem, not a chucK 
problem) with casting types, blah blah blah. Are C expressions good in 
chucK? Did I miss that in the documentation?

I look forward to seeing if this thread goes anywhere.
