Perhaps I am being to informal again.
There is much evil in the world and for me every application that
consumes a lot of my time with no documentation or reason becomes evil.

Therefore all microsoft os versions after dos 2.1 are also evil.  And
Apple is evil for about the same reason with another story line.  We
won't go into politics from there but you get the idea.

QT I have installed a few times to try to get it to work.  Each time
the result is the same.  Big time drop outs that migrate to other
audio applications.  Robs clock tick file sounds like a clock with
someone shooting at it.

Recorded in the rain, wind and fog this morning.  I have an bird
question as soon as I can get the evil firewire pcmcia card working again.
