About two weeks ago, I uploaded a new version of csound~ and
forgot to tell anyone. My sincerest apologies. The latest
version (2006_09_01) along with improved install instructions
can be found at:
http://www.davixology.com/csound~.html
The latest version will allow WinXP users to work with Csound
versions 5.02 and later, but is incompatible with earlier versions.
A MacOSX version has also been added for people using MaxMSP 4.6 on
a PPC Mac. An Intel/UB version of csound~ for MacOSX is not available
at the moment.
Relevant entries from the changelog are at the end of this
email. Have fun!

CHANGES.TXT:
2006_09_01
-> (MacOSX) Compiled a version of csound~ compatible with MaxMSP 4.6.
-> Recompiled WinXP versions to work with Csound 5.02 and 5.03. The
2006_09_01 build is incompatible with Csound 5.01 or earlier.
2006_08_18
-> Replaced RedBlack Tree code with a hash table to store invalue/outvalue
names and values. This will not change the way you used invalue/outvalue
feature. It may improve performance for low k-rate values.
2006_06_15
-> If message output is not enabled, then the command line string
passed to csoundCompile() will not be printed to the window.
-> Added messages “recordStart/recordStop/playStart/playStop”.
These messages control the newly added sequencer which can record
all MIDI events, “control” message events, and “event” message
events. It can also play them back.
This feature is intended mainly for non-realtime rendering.
Adding “-oSomeFileName.aif” to the “csound” command will enable
non-realtime rendering and if there are any recorded events, they
will be played back during the rendering.
This feature has not been fully tested and should not be considered
complete. Other than this entry in the change log, there is no
documentation. If you haven’t talked to me about it, then you probably
shouldn’t use it.
2006_06_13
-> Fixed command line parsing so that flags that look like negative
numbers (e.g. “-3”) are processed correctly.
-> If rendering to a file and reading from a MIDI file, if the “-T”
flag is not present, then it is added so that the rendering thread
exits when the end of the MIDI file is reached.
