• Do we need to generate Visual Studio files?
• What settings does conformpath need on windows?

Example:

> sfedit randcuts

USAGE: sfedit randcuts infile average-chunklen scattering

Names of outfiles will be infilename truncated by 1 character,
      with a number added, starting from zero.

This will generate multiple output files that we couldn't load back into buffers using the current system.

Right now the object works by running a CDP executable in a separate process. It would be much more efficient to compile each CDP program into the Max object directly. It might even be good to create a separate object for each program.

All CPD programs take a different set of arguments. In particular, they take different numbers and types of input and output files. Knowing which arguments are input and output files for a given program will enable:

• Automatic overwriting of output files
• Reading from and writing to Max buffer~ objects
• Conversion of non-audio files to a Max-native format to pass between multiple cdp objects
