Hi Jamie, Thanks for your response. I cloned the repo to see the history, and noticed a tendency of simplification: FFTW replaced by Ooura, autotools build system replaced by makefiles. Nice! In fact the whole library looks much simpler than one would expect for the given functionality. Even the Pd and MaxMSP wrappers were amazingly small and simple files.
For a library so systematic as LibXtract it makes sense to avoid wrapper code duplication. But will the extra complexity and overhead of Flext be justified in the case of these two wrapper externals plus corresponding makefiles? If the build system is your main concern, there may be a way to use a helper makefile like this for the Pd external and adapt (arguments for) it to build the MaxMSP version: https://github.com/pure-data/pd-lib-builder.
