gollark: Well, that should be easier, I can just pregenerate... 0.1 second blocks of various frequencies, or something.
gollark: Ah, hmm.
gollark: Also, recognizing frequency would probably be irritating, I'd need a... Fourier transform, or something, or just some really hacky thing for recognizing *one* frequency.
gollark: I see. Well, if you write/find DFPWM to/from... raw signed ints, or something... conversion, I'll look at implementing that.
gollark: Waaaait, wouldn't I need to implement a DFPWM encoder/decoder somehow?
