The code is free for anyone to use provided you mention me somewhere - its not 
like its going to cost you anything :-). If you need support you can try
mailing me at the address above - I can be quite busy but I will try and 
deal with any queries.

Linux

It is built under windows but I have included the various build files needed 
for linux - delete the file "makefile" and use the configure script to 
make a new one for linux. The files needed by autoconf are there anyway 
if that doesn't work. I can't run PD on the linux machine I have got 
access to (only telnet access) so I am not sure about installing it but all the 
stuff should be there. 

Windows 

There is a VC++ 6 project file included an it builds fine with that. I haven't 
tried anyother tools as yet. However there is a binary version included 
in case you haven't got the compiler.

To install - add mjLib.dll to your pd library path: 

	-lib C:\pd\mjLib\mjLib
	
and copy the contents of doc\mjLib  into 

	[pd home]\docs\5.reference\mjLib 
	
that should be you done.

General notes

This library will grow a bit - there are a few more objects that I want to 
put into it. 

There are currently five objects: 

	pin~	- randomly delivers the input signal to either the right or left outlet with a given probability
	metroplus - allows complex timing bangs to be delivered
	prob - generates random events with a given probability
	monorhythm - basic rhythm pattern building blocks that allows polyrhthms to be generated quickly and easily	
	about - delivers a number that is "about" the same as the input number.
