The link in the readme - https://www.zhdk.ch/en/research/icst/contact-administration-3749
is 404 not found :(
What I was hoping to find out is how one might create a binaural stereo rendering of ambisonics audio. I can ambidecode~ to 2 channels, but it doesn't seem to allow for HRTF. Or am I missing something? Would love to learn!

Hi Peter,
This is the current contact info found within minutes on the ZHdK site: https://www.zhdk.ch/en/research/icst
I'm no longer at that institution, and don't know what their status on supporting this toolset is.
The ICST tools never dealt with psychoacoustic processing beyond Ambisonics matrix-based encoding and decoding. There are, however, nice ways of decoding to binaural audio (i.e. headphones) using IR-sets with for ex. the Hiss-tools multiconvolve~.
Also, if you look at what Envelop are doing (after all they have at their heart the ICST externals), their tools implement additional processing using convo for that purpose.
And then spat5 has become free to use and in that big set of tools, I'm sure you'll find a way to achieve what you are looking for.
cheers
