[Audacity-nyquist] RE: One problem with the attached plug-in

[Roger D. <rb...@cs...>]

David,
	Nyquist is a compromise between (1) a very pure semantics where
timing is always explicit and (2) the realities of causality, finite memory,
and other implementation issues.
	As a result, Nyquist makes some assumptions, e.g. sounds do not have
negative lengths, and each sound in a sequence begins after the previous
sound in the sequence.
	I suspect your code to allow chunks to play in reverse order
violates some assumption in Nyquist. Perhaps Nyquist should be testing and
reporting when this happens.
	Can you send me the code? Attachments show up in Audacity-nyquist
digest as BASE64 binaries rather than text, and my mail reader (Outlook)
does not know how to decode this. I'm sure I could manually cut, paste, and
decode, but time is short.
	In the future, can we post either URLs or put code text in the
message bodies?

	Thanks,
	Roger
