hi, matthieu,

• switched to a jmaxish look

this, we all told you 'no go'! !

Imitating your style of bringing personal mails to the pd mailing lists, here am I, replying to you.

FYI, the jMax look will require a commandline option (pd -modelview) to enable the new GUI code, and even then, the look is configurable, so you can set the colours you want as well as some other details. (and in Graz, I all showed you how ridiculously easy it is to change the color scheme in ImpureData!)

think the graz t-shirts are all in pure 'pd aesthetics' style and they are cool )

My aesthetics aren't the jMax aesthetics. They are the mechanism/policy separation aesthetics and the model/view separation aesthetics. Those things I bring in will make it easier for you to make a version of Pd that uses NCurses instead of Tk... if you want to. Or to have easy-to-maintain Catalan translations of Pd menus and dialogs. Or ... (so on).

The jMax look is a very secondary feature, and I won't force it over any people, and I won't even force it on those who will want to use "pd -modelview" !
