Hi Hans --
the "vwait" line didn't seem correct to me (could return right after Pd says to clear pd_path, before the other messages bubble up to append the various directories to it).
I ended up fixing Pd to volunteer the path and startup stuff before sending pdtk_pd_startup so that none of the tcl side of things should be needed any longer. OTOH if you were planning to send "pd set-startup" etc at some later point in the tcl code, this would need to be supported in Pd...(?)

Hey Miller,
I just noticed that you left out a key part of pd-gui-rewrite in 0.43. There is the 'set-startup' and 'set-path' messages which allows pd-gui to get the state of those things without having to open the respective preference dialog panels. The changes are in m_glob.c and s_path.c, as well as these lines in pd-gui.tcl:
pdsend "pd set-startup" ;# get ::startup_librariesand ::startup_flags lists pdsend "pd set-path" ;# get the ::pd_path list vwait ::pd_path ;# wait for 'pd' to respond
