real time?

I just pulled down the latest release and will be curious to
see what's new. What is that status of real time output? Your release
notes state that this version is not real time and "will never be". Is
there some structural reason that you couldn't hook its generating routine
up to a callback, such as calculating each instrument one track at a time?
I'm specifically interested in getting a W95 Wave or Direct Sound interface
going.

This weekend I downloaded and checked out Supercollider- it's very well
done, although only for PowerPC. This would be a good model for an MPEG4
development environment. The ability to add real-time sliders that affect
instruments as they're played is particularly useful.
