it would be better to just note that there are no usable recorders for
linux at this time. the fact that people have bad experiences with
unusable software is not really worth noting. actually, i think this
is formally called a tautology :)

did you try snd ?

see:
pipe(2)
"struct foo { .... format of message ... }"
{write,read} (pipe[{1,0}], &a_foo, sizeof (foo));

what ?

as usual, all my code, including everything associated with a dropout
free, multichannel HDR system, is all available in C++ via CVS. sorry
that you don't like C++ - i can't imagine trying to engineer a system
like ardour or quasimodo without it.
