hi carmen,
have not found any good solution yet, still trying...
just removed 'edit' mode in my version, in favor of making 'edit-mode' the default while renaming non-edit-mode to 'lock patch' - even among similar apps, Bidule/Reaktor/VVVV get along fine without seperate modes, not to mention my text editor, paint program, etc.. the only programs i can think of with 'edit-mode' forced upon the user are vi and Max/MSP, neither of which i pretend to like in the Usability dept..
oh, no!
flames for modes vs modeless !
personally, i feel at home in pd's modes, so i would not want to change that.
all programming languages i know are mode-based (edit/compile/run or edit/run), so i would not go too much for WordPerfect or PhotoShop ...
(and for the usual flames: i prefer both vi and emacs)
