Hi Jonathan, and everyone else! I would be interested in working on the gui stuff. I was just trying to do some theming and tried applying the color scheme part of pd-extended as a patch to vanilla. It kind of worked, but it was just a first attempt. Anyway, I would very much like to do more of this, so please give me some hints. Scaling would be awesome. /Kaj Ailomaa _______________________________________________ Pd-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
