Naw, you have to find some clever way of working around its absence that takes months of development and brilliant development that barely passes muster...THEN Stefan'll release the feature. ;-)

Man, can you imagine how infuriated the developers musta been when they came up with Ganis? "It'd be awesome if there was a way to package a bunch of images all layered together in some sort of Graal Animation object-file" "[no answer]" "...well, I guess we could just use showimg a bunch of times..."

I have added ganis to make it easier for me to configure the position of the graphics instead of typing each position manually in a script file (source file). It was not because people were trying to emulate it with showimgs or whatever. It was just not possible to do similar things like that before (think of colored bodies via showimg?).

For new sound commands it would probably be possible to add something, although we should first try to figure out what would be the most useful. I don't know if many people have already seen it, but currently you cannot even play music/mp3s non-looped. If you have some feature request like that then its welcome.
Stuff like changing frequency and things are not that hard to do by using external tools, things like dynamic echo effect would probably be more interesting since you cannot easily emulate it (you would need to redo all sound effects).
Seeking in music files can probably be added, it will only work for local files though, since you cannot easily seek in internet streams.
