It would be super userful to have an easy way to make the various
loaders auto-load (Lua, Tcl, libdir, etc). For the 0.43 GUI plugins,
currently, it will autoload any file called *-plugin.tcl anywhere in
the path, so to install a 0.43 GUI plugin, you just drop the file into
the Pd path and restart.
I was thinking we could do the same with with loaders. So *-
loader.pd_linux (or maybe *-loader.so) anywhere in the Pd path would
be loaded at startup.
I'd really like to see more people using the pdlua, tclpd, libdir,
etc. and I think making them really easy to install on all platforms
would go a long way towards making that happen.
