lsynthcp will always be a seperate program so that other programs can use it as
a library sort of thing, like Lars taught me about L3P.

I don't like the getopt format because it is so different than standard issue
meta-commands.

Another thing I'd like to do is stop hard coding constraints and synthesis parts
into LSynth (at least for band synthesis), and move those controls externally to
a file.

Defining part/radius/orientation for bands should be easy.  Defining cross
sections and end parts for hoses should be easy too.
