ah, i have forgotten about this

about a year ago i wrote a small library "iem16": 16bit versions of 
delay~s (del16write~, del16read~, vd16~) and tables (table16, 
tab16read~, tab16write~,...).
i had written it, because i had to do delay-based timeshifting of 4 
channels over long periods of time on a laptop with only 512MB of ram.
since 16bit is good enough for CD i though it was tolerable to use it 
for such things.

i have checked it into the CVS (externals/iem16) now.
i will put the binaries online (ftp.iem.at)
