I don't know of other meanings of "savestate" although the name does (unfortunately) suggest that it's for object archiving ala NeXTStep (and I think earlier from Smalltalk).
At first glance "savestate" seemed like it might be related to "state saving," e.g., a core class that provides the hooks necessary to take a "snapshots" at will of system state without requiring the user to prepare the patch for that purpose ahead of time. cheers M On Fri, Jan 22, 2021 at 03:05:02AM +0000, Jonathan Wilkes via Pd-list wrote: > > On Thursday, January 21, 2021, 6:35:34 PM EST, cyrille henry ><c...@chnry.net> wrote: > > here we are : > https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://xkcd.com/927/__;!!Mih3wA!R6uAxiWLBX_uU5Ci0LdXHpjrQ9nqMwFrdbZWOnVFuZoBOC0XTicG-OTEv7cY$ > > > This case seems more like the Lisp problem-- every single user has their own > non-standard, incompatible, and deeply personal solution to the problem. > Also-- do I have it right that the only relevant native core class > "savestate" isn't about statesaving in its common parlance, but is instead a > callback hard-coded to the "save" event that writes a patch file to the > filesystem?
