I guess it's subjective but I think some of the GOP datastructure abstractions out there have amazing GUIs that work with vanilla Pd without requiring users to compile/install complicated externals. Want examples? Check out Frank's work.
I'm only doing toys. A new toy is attached (requires 0.40): a simple slider made with DS. It has some redraw problems: moving the object will not move the GOP'ped data structures, until a redraw is forced externally or manually.
Also [pd subpatches] seem to be broken somewhat if you enable the "hide object name" property, which doesn't get saved into the patch (if the subpatch name has a $0).
That's nice, it would be great to have state-saving built-in too. But for some reason on Mac OS X, the slider part doesn't show up on the help patch. But it does if I open up the object itself.
Oh, I see, its the annoying cross-platform size differences. That needs to be fixed so bad... hmm... I started on it, but didn't quite get there..
