Thanks for this... I am using sclang, haven't got far with Drape's
haskell sc bindings yet. Maybe it's sclang that I'm crashing? I'll

rather than to stop working completely.

Thanks. Maybe let me know when you're next in London and we can set up
a TOPLAP event... We have a PA at state51 now (thanks to no-signal.net)
so it would be easy.
