yay! Doco! Thanks, man!

nice to know it's already useful.

i know, not for you mr. Trout, but hopefully for somebody...  ;)

now the challenge is to improve them and make sturdy feel, maybe giving them some power amps pots feeling or smth...

what the hardware geeks say?

Sweet :)

I hate to be a grammar nazi, but just for the sake of searching, perhaps it would be best to replace "detend" with "detent(ed)"?
