[Rwp] Ivory?

[Scott Chesworth]

The vast majority of third party plugs I've seen showing formatted
values were developed using iPlug though, and I'm pretty sure Cockos
had something to do with iPlug development. Ah, all the pieces are
falling into place...

Yeah, I'm already making the point to developers that formatted values
wherever possible benefit everyone, because the sighted folks get
useful stuff showing up on the displays of their control surfaces etc.
