Ah, yes, thanks! I've said it before -- one of my favorite things<br>
about list-abs is their use in pedagogy -- you can get "under the<br>
hood" in them with music students and they don't have to learn C to do<br>
it (each of the list-abs objects could be written much more<br>
efficiently in C but it's nice to have them as abstractions, and<br>
vanilla abstractions at that). These iem_tab objects are great as far<br>
as use-within-a-patch is concerned, though, so again thanks. Maybe<br>
I'll make my own abstractions for pedagogy.<br>
