[Laser] Linux DSP program

[Bob Williams]

I've just downloaded baudline (http://www.baudline.com) a realtime audio
processing program for Linux.  It may have some possibilities for laser
comms.  The waterfall display is useful for visual integration, and the
"Average" and "Drift Integration" features should do the same
mathematically.  You can save your data and reprocess it a number of
different ways.
  
I played with it a little, and imagine that if I knew a bit more about
DSP I might be able to use it for pulling 800 Hz laser tones out of the
noise.  If anyone else looks at it and can see ways to use it, please
let me know.  Also, if you've had any good experiences with other Linux
programs for DSP, I'd like to hear about them.

Baudline is not under any of the public licenses, nor is the source
freely available. For now an i386 compiled version is free to download -
but not distributable.  The developer is interested in what kind of
applications people come up with for the program.
