hello johannes . yes you are right 'tendency' should be there but  
slipped through the cracks ill add it in this weekend let me know if  
you find others.  as to 'interpl' -- in the new api &rest functions  
like interp and pick also permit the &rest values as a single list. in  
other words  'interp' also does 'interpl' and 'pick' handles 'pickl'

(interp (ran) 0 0 1 50)
(interp (ran) '(0 0 1 50))

(pick 1 2 3 4 5)
(pick '(1 2 3 4 5))

(plus 1 2 3 4 5)
(plus '(1 2 3 4 5))

and so on. ive trier to build in mapping and list support as much as  
possible so with just a little snippet you can do some interesting  
musical things. for example this generates a 50 note melody with pink  
noise mapped onto an octatonic scale with just-tuned whole and half- 
steps:

(discrete (make-list 50 ranpink) -1 1 (scale 24 60 2.04 1.12))

> a file-interface via fomus or so will be included, am i right?

when david announces that libfomus works ill make a port for in in  
grace and you will be able to send data to it.  grace ports handle  
both score (file) and interactive uses.  I think Todd is working on  
score support for the midiport right now.
