Hey Yvan, It's great that you are taking this on, its definitely useful. I think that it might make more sense to create a separate GUI-only preference system. Its something that I had planned on trying, but hadn't found the time, so it'd be great if you beat me to it! This way it would be a lot easier to deal with, you can do everything from Tcl. .hc _______________________________________________ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
