Okey. But I'm not sure its a good idea. Snd objects are not
deterministic. If you try to write an object in a different way
(external/subpatch/pyext/etc.) that is supposed to to the same, it will
99% for sure behave slightly different.
The reason is that data-handling in the snd external are threaded and
is run asynchronus to pd, and that all the dsp-handling is performed at
once (once per cycle) for all snd objects, because of performance reasons.
(dsp using the snd external is extremely efficient)
I'm afraid hiding these facts from the user can create confusing
situations...
Regarding the system path settings, aren't they available somewhere
anyway?
And whats a "newly developing namespace"?

This would allow you to write bonafide Pd objects in snd. What language they
are written in would be transparent to the user. They would behave just like
objects. They could be bundled into libraries, they would work with the
system path settings, they would work in the newly developing namespace, they
could have their own help patches, etc. etc.

Hmm, I don't see the point. Having those extra four letters ("snd ") shows
that it is an snd object, and not an external or a patch. Whats the point
of hiding that information?

It would be great if this was set up to use Pd's new generic loader
functionality. Then you could write Pd objects directly in Guile/snd
without needing the [snd] object. It looks like you are most of the way
there.
There is currently a Common Language Runtime (C#, etc) API in the works
that is being ported to the new loader also.
Basically, you just write a little loader program that tells Pd how to
load an object that is written in snd.

Hi, this mail is to inform that Bill Schottstaedt just put up
documentation for the snd pd external in the snd-manual:
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/snd/snd/grfsnd.html#sndwithpd
The documentation also also contains a screen-shot of a pretty neat
stochastic pd patch made by Bill Sack, which use the snd external.
If you know (and like) lisp, pd and snd, you should check this out...
