-#X text 57 14 -- ramp generator;
-#X text 17 43 [line]'s left inlet defines the "target" value. The right
-inlet defines the "time" value. The "target \, time" pair of numbers
-inform [line] to produce a numeric "ramp" from its current value (whatever
-that might be at any given moment) to the new value within the alloted
-time which is defined at the right inlet.;
-#X text 18 131 It is important to realize that [line] stores only the
-current value...it does not remember the defined "time" (duration of
-the ramp). Hence \, the following works:;

-#X text 20 293 If [line] receives a new target value without an accompanying
-"time" \, it simply jumps to the new value...as in the example above
-on the right. In the example above on the left \, you'll see that [line]
-will create a numeric ramp from 0 to 1000 over 1000 milliseconds. You
-should also note that if you click that [bng] again a second time \,
-nothing happens. This is because [line] is already at 1000 \, so sending
-it new instructions to ramp to 1000 is meaningless and has no effect.
-;
-#X text 18 419 Having said all of that \, let's just reiterate that
-it's important to send a "time" value to [line] before sending it a
-new "target" value...unless of course you WANT it to jump immediately
-to the new target.;
-#X text 415 20 [line] will accept a list of two numbers. The first
-in the list will be assigned as the new target \, the second in the

-this means is that if you send [line] a new target value mid-way through
-a ramp \, a new ramp is immediatly created to the new target value
-starting from the "current" value.;
-#X text 27 105 In other words \, if [line] receives a message specifying
