[RWP] Tiny Baby Steps

[Indigo]

I hoped you'd make it with ReaScript, Jim.
If anybody could; it'd be you.
I'll never be a programmer, but I'm just about to make some changes in 
the JS script in the joystick's generic file, in hopes of forcint it to 
see the fourth joystick move; not just x Y Z; but  the Z movement 
divided into Z A and Z R.
.I find a line something like Events msb1 msb2 msb3 and I'll add msb4 
just learn what happens.Maybe that's illegal, but what's it gonna do, 
crash Reaper at most; I hope it's only that severe.I'm trying to puzzle 
out the logic behind each line of the JS code.
It shouldn't hurt to plug in different values, might learn something; 
and with a miracle, might get the fourth joystick arc transmitting an 
additional  midi CC message.
Thanks,
Indi
