Firstly: Thanks again for your continued direct customer support.

With all the suggestions people have given for the patch you are making, it would take you forever to complete it. I just wondered if you could give a rough list of what the patch would feature, (a no-soundcard patch please - still 'ain't arrived yet :() and also an idea of when it would come out.

Thanx in advance...
