Re: Fwd: [PD-announce] unauthorized 0.2 pre test release for apple silicon

hello again ( <yawn > )

another note about unauthorized - i know it's boring  ::

* instructions to get my version are wrong, it's no more CVS but git :

git clone http://giss.tv/~git/git.cgi/unauthorized.git

and i publish only sources that are tested only on Linux,
it's the only system i have here.

* i checked all objects and fixed STK instruments for modern linux ( 
22.04 );
for other systems i don't know..

i know the lib is not so trim and documented as ELSE,
but it was my first lib.

adeu,
