[linux-audio-user] Re: vstserver-almost...

The one that is recommended in the documentation for vstserver,
wine-200309. However, the december 2003 version is reported not to compile
with newer linux distributions, so... Well, its a mess, and I don't
have time to look at it now. dssi-vst looks promising, perhaps it would
be a good idea to port k_vst~ to use that one. Shouln't be very hard,
probably only a few lines changed...
