Well, I have to admit that I am not an extensive cyclone user, as I
never programmed with MAX, and I am trying to reduce my pd programming

Afer all, one purpose of the CVS is to built a stronger external

that can happen is if someone does not contribute because it seemed
that I was imposing something.
