Maybe it's time to kill osst.c for good ...
Yes. I've been thinking about doing just that. The devices it supports
are now thoroughly obsolete. The manufacturer has gone out of business.
All my test drives have broken down over time, so I can't even test any
changes any more.
Just when I thought to reach out to you :-)
Thing is, we've done numerous changes to the 'st' driver in the course
of the years, most of which seem to have avoided osst :-(
So what's your suggestion here?
Just drop it completely?
Or can we somehow fold the OnStream-specific things back into st.c?
Cheers,
Hannes
