The CSound Front-End provides CSound users with a GUI with a clean and efficient layout.

The main window has been redesigned. The engine input frame is a mutant widget that can accomodate different styles of input selection (in the picture we have orc/sco pair, all-in-one .csd file and orc/generator) as well as most kinds of orc/sco pre-processing.

At the moment you switch from between the input frames using the +/- buttons (ugly!). Settings are saved separately for each frame. From the programmer's point of view, writing a pre-processing plug-in now means to write a new engine input frame class.

The option window is still the same. As general GUI design guide line, I'm trying to use few complex windows instead of 10's of little windows.

As side effect of the routing re-design, the logger window as been simplified. From the only menu available you can still start an external generator, assigning the logged engine as default route.
