Essls work is brilliant, but I have mixed feelings looking at the library. I think toolkits like that are quite personal to the composer and ones own developed way of working. There's not much in there that a fluent Pd programmer wouldn't construct on the fly as needed, and some things, like [minus], are just wanton. Not to detract the dudes great kindness in sharing it but too much gravy can hide the meat, as in my own recent foolish appetite for [inv] when [pow -1] was laughing at me all the time.
