Wow, very cool. Made me finally setup Wifi on my DS, and indeed it
works.

I already have some feature requests. ;) 

It would be nice, if the sliders would somehow work a bit more like
Pd's sliders in that they also react to movements that are not
directly touching the slider's value indicator. I think, this 1px-line
is sometimes hard to hit even in my well-lit desktop environment. I
guess it will be even harder to hit the right spot on a dark stage. 

And then I didn't really figure out how the knobs should be used. I
just don't manage to move them any more than a quarter turn. I
finished "Kirby's Canvas Course" with high scores, so I don't believe
I'm too clumsy with the Stylus. ;)

And we need an XY-control, toggles, bangs and radio buttons next,
please! What do you recommend as a NDS build environemnt for
Debian/Linux?

Ciao
