Quoting "Hans-Christoph Steiner" <[email protected]>:
The vanilla libdir will include [f], [t], [b], etc. you don't need

excuse my ignorance, but i'm only proposing that the "vanilla"
library should be loaded by default, unless the user decides that
they don't want that.
if you indeed read my mail like this, then i would like you to
explain to me again, why you needed additional search paths like ~/
pd-externals/ to be compiled into pd, when we have a perfectly
working method to add "~/pd-externals" (well, given that the tilde
expansion works) to the search paths: "-path ~/pd-externals".
That is not quite a good analogy. The existing method was there: a
folder that was searched by default called path/to/pd/extra. You did
not need to specify -path path/to/pd/extra. ~/pd-externals is just
another folder in that same list of folders to search.
removing the core objects from Pd seems a more aggressive assault to
people's workflows than having them manually add some "standard"
search paths.
either you do make exceptions or you don't.
I want nothing aggressive or assaulting. The idea is to solve
problems like:
- wanting use a SIMD-optimized version of the core objects for things
that need it
- ability to use the new GUI/editor features while maintaining
compatibility with older versions of Pd (i.e. steps towards the
separation of the editor and the runtime).
