Great! I hope it comes in handy. > Having worked a bit with [pool] recently, especially as it is used in > Memento, I'd venture that you'd have to go quite a bit further to match > its functionality, though.

It would be laudable to > do a "pure" Memento, but I think much of the hierarchic potential of > [pool] for state-saving has barely been scratched, and in that direction Yeah for sure, that was way too optimistic of me. I think trying to re-implement all the functionality of [pool] in Pd would be a huge stretch of Pd and definately not what Pd is best at. [pool] is a great external already - no point in re-inventing the wheel. However I guess what I'm thinking is that it may be possible to extend the functionality of the SSSAD system a bit with this associative list thing to the point where some of the functionality of memento can be brought into SSAD. I guess only Frank can really tell us if this will be any use!
