More seriously, I always found it intensely annoying that fftw claimed copyright/license on generated code.
Less seriously again:
"name idea is A Worse Is Better Way Of Computing A Fourier Transform"
Not "Better is Worse"?
> PROGN...PROGN...PROGN...SETQ...SETQ...SETQ...GO #....GO #...GO #...
My mistake, worse it is. ;)
Anyway leveraging name recognition on "Worse is Better" really is a good naming idea.
