What don't I understand? I would like to see each concept that the ALSA configuration file language is intended to be able to express, and then the syntax used to express that concept. Then some examples with clear explanations of why each thing in the config file was put there. As in a good programming language tutorial. What I've seen instead is a lot of chunks of strange-looking syntax "explained" by saying "try stuffing this in <some file somewhere>, and good luck." Which leaves me blundering around in the dark, hoping to get lucky :-). I've read a lot of the docs, but of course not everything on the whole web, especially as new stuff appears all the time. What would you recommend that I read specifically? -- Paul Perkins
