Why introduce a new method of configuration when you can do this all with Pd messages? It seems to me to overcomplicate things for a tiny gain. Gem is already complicated as it is, now there is yet another way to configure it: messages, env vars, and a special conf file. I don't see any reason why this all can't be handled by messages and a [loadbang].

the nice thing is that you don't have to use it if you don't like it....

i will not use it because i also prefer the "everything in one patch" : you have less surprises when sharing patches. (that is also why i think a good patch is a patch that could start with -nopref flag on pd startup)

I totally agree, we should be working towards everything in the patch, and they should work with pd -nopref. Sure, no one has to use it, but if someone does use it, and then you want to use their patch, then you have to use

but i would understand someone that set gemwin framerate at 50 fps because the default 20 fps is a nonsense...

Isn't that changed by doing [gemwin 50]? That doesn't seem so hard that a gem.conf is needed.
