[CM] Sprouting processes from sequences?

[Rick Taube]

actually, as i look at it i realize you should not use enqueue - just call schedule-object recursivly instead. that way the stuff you are adding will get initialized correctly no matter what it is.

(defmethod schedule-object ((obj arpeggio) start)
  (let ((add (create-arpeggio-objects obj)))
     ;; add stuff to queue but not self.
     (dolist (a add)
       (schedule-object a start ))))

i think its <start-time>  <curent-time> but dont use that function.
