92
TAP Deesser's Monitor control didn't work, apparently because
93
my awesome out-of-range protection applied to that input
94
didn't let anything but zero get through due to a typo in the

<b>Request to package maintainers:</b> If you would like to include
204
TAP-plugins in your distro, or provide packages of some format on your
205
own decision, just go ahead. However, when you have made a package of
206
TAP-plugins publicly available, please notify me so I can include your
207
distribution (and you as well, if you want it) in the above list. To
208
do so, please send me the URL where your package is available
209
(possibly a sub-page of your distro's online package browser, or your
210
own package collection), along with your name and email address (if
211
your mail headers don't tell it all). Thank you. </blockquote>
