Are you going to release the objects as externals ? I think it would be better to have them in the pd sources, and let configure detect the availabilty of fftw, and compile accordingly.
i thought about that, but fftw3 is released under the gpl, pd under bsd licence, so i wasn't sure if i could write a pd-internal object to use the library ...
i had a look at the other libraries, pd is using ... since most audio-i/o libraries are gpl (jack, portaudio, alsa), i don't see any problems to use the fftw library ... i'll start working on it in one week after my math exams ... i'm not familiar with the automake tools ... is there any online crash course i could have a look at?
cheers...
