~/.pd/recentfiles.conf would always only contain recentfiles configuration.
ok I have a couple more questions:
now I have a ~/.pd/recentfiles.conf that is parsed and all filenames are added to a new "Open Recent" submenu when pd launches instead of putting them directly in the File menu (I removed one of the bottom separators in there). (that looks nice!) so the new layout of the file menu would be: [New] [Open] [Open Recent >] [---] [Save] [Save As] [---] [Message] [Print] [---] [Close] [Quit]
what do you think of this idea ?
then I wonder when it would be better to write this file. I'd like to do it only when closing pd but I'm not sure..
also, I created a new file and put all this recentfiles stuff in it, tcl/pd_guiprefs.tcl and I didn't find out where I should add it so it ends up in tcl/pkgIndex.tcl. any hints ?
cheers, _y
