Personally I use sssad now, and it's used throughout the rj

cleaner. It doesn't
include an actual object to save settings to a file, but that's by
design: it
also doesn't force you to use a specific object to save like
Memento did with
[pool]. You even can use sssad with pool, if you want. Or use it
with
message-boxes or [textfile] or [netsend].
Oh, and [sssad] is Pd vanilla so it runs on every current
distribution of Pd.
So its sounds like memento is no longer supported.
Why? I think, you've misinterpreted what I wrote: I only described
what I
currently use for new projects, and that's [sssad]. But I still have
tons of
old projects that use Memento and as long as the required externals
are there,
it Just Works(tm).
I suspect the crash reported here is due to some externals issue.
I've seen
Memento crash, when the wrong [prepend] was used, that's why I
removed all
[prepend] from Memento a long time ago. Another reason for crashes
has been a
conflict that [pool] had with other flext-based externals (When I
gdb-debugged
this, I found crashes happen in xsample, which isn't even used in
Memento.) But
AFAIR, later versions of flext didn't show this crash anymore and
recompiling
all flext-externals fixed it for me.
That was long ago. So all in all I think, Memento isn't causing
crashes anymore
on its own.
Ah, ok, sounds like you are still supporting it then.
For the 0.43 release of Pd-extended I am planning on pulling out
non-supported libraries and making them standalone libraries.
Should I
include memento?
That's up to you. Memento needs [pool], though.
I think that it doesn't make a lot of sense to include memento without
including [pool]. So IMHO either someone gets pool included, or
memento should be distributed separately along with pool.
