I've thought a bit more about the subject. I find that a realisation of the
idea on top of a custom gui object could have some rough edges:

(i) the code is not given at creation time, so if the number of
inlets/outlets is to be inferred from it, pd objects should support
adding/removing of inlets/outlets after object initialization. Is this
possible?

(ii) maybe the object will show itself in outer abstractions when contained
in inner abstractions with graph-in-parent activated. Is it possible to
avoid this?

I ask the above to the pd savvy in order to determine if it's viable to go
this way.

TIA
Cheers,
Carlos

Hello all,

I think there are at least three ways to go with this:

1) reassemble the code from atoms.
2) provide a object with a gui specialized for code edition.
3) provide some symbol escaping syntax so that, for example, everything
between << and >> will be taken as a single symbol by pd.

I think 2, although a bit laborious, fit best to the goal of code edition.
We could treat code as a single string, instead of dealing with symbols, and
we could even (this is wishful thinking) provide some syntax highlighting
and formatting. I'm pretty new to pd but I guess I could take g_bang.c and
friends as examples to start working with.

Cheers,
Carlos
