Re: [xl7] OS 2.5 ideas

OS 2.5 suggestion... How about a COPY/APPEND to function which would 
let you "copy a patten to itself making it twice as long" or "append it 
to another pattern" making the 2 patterns 1 NEW pattern.

Sequential had this function in their Drumtraks Box in the 80's... I 
Liked it !
