rfft~ output's the real part of the fft to the first outlet and the
imaginary part to the second outlet ... each bin represents the
frequency given by (samplerate / windowsize) * n

both the real an the imaginary output are the same type as the common
signal blocks are...

if you are into c++, i'd suggest that you have a look at thomas grill's
flext ... it's very easy to use and it's much more elegant to use than
pd's internal api (i hope all the c programmers on this list forgive
me)...

cheers...
