Dear list,

@Miller: thank you for your suggestion. However I used all my (very limited) bash knowledge and I wrote a simple script that searches the name in the gensym function after the class_new declaration. Using then find I look on all src folder.

@Fred: thank you for your words. If my bash knowledge is limited, my web knowledge is almost zero. However, if it will be possible to open a page on puredata.info and upload the list sorted (by library?) I will do it. But I don't know how to create a page on puredata.info or similar.

In attachment, the script (just chmod +x objlist.sh ) and the zexy object list obtained in this way: find ./zexy/src -name '*.c' -exec ./objlist.sh {} ; > zexy.txt

A final note: I am on OS X, so no GNU sed. I downloaded the GNU sed from MacPorts (gsed). In the script we have to change gsed with sed.

Best regards,

Marco

Suggestion: in m_class.c, uncomment this line:

#if 0 post("class: %s", c->c_name->s_name); #endif

Then load the libraries one by one - you'll be rewarded with a printout of all created classes. If you only want to see ones you can tye in a box (supressing invisible helper objects), instead make it:

if (typeflag == CLASS_PATCHABLE)
    post("class: %s", c->c_name->s_name);

Hi Marco,

Dear all,

in these days several guys complaint with me about the difficulty of finding one particular external in the sea called Deken. The main problem is that people have patches on Extended and the difficult task is to switch on Vanilla + Deken.

So, the most trivial solution that comes to my mind is to create a Latex template where put for each library several infos like the name of the library, the maintainer, the version, and the list of objs maybe with same extra informations. My idea is to provide a general latex template and people can help this project downloading the template and then start to put all informations.

However, the main point is: it si useful? I mean Floss[1] provides something similar, and before to start this project I was just wondering about its concrete helpfulness. Maybe something similar is present and simply I don't know about it. In these case, it could be an idea to upload it on Deken and when people just press "enter" or some typos Deken can suggest to download this pdf.

Finally, an object list can be useful to understand who is maintaining what and what is actually not maintained.

Probably it's only a boring idea. Let me know.

Yes, I think it would be useful. If it was web-based, it could even help deken suggest libraries with same or similar named objects. Libraries do

not

change very much these days, so even an one time effort will be useful

for

some years.

With your good work you made my work so ugly and useless :)

Best,

@Miller: thank you for your suggestion. However I used all my (very limited) bash knowledge and I wrote a simple script that searches the name in the gensym function after the class_new declaration. Using then find I look on all src folder.

@Fred: thank you for your words. If my bash knowledge is limited, my web knowledge is almost zero. However, if it will be possible to open a page on puredata.info http://puredata.info and upload the list sorted (by library?) I will do it. But I don't know how to create a page on puredata.info http://puredata.info or similar.

My approach is to get a list of object names from the *-help.pd patches. Combined with a search function in the puredata.info server this could result in a object search as part of the deken "Find externals"-plugin. See https://github.com/pure-data/deken/issues/133 for more details.

...

In attachment, the script (just chmod +x objlist.sh ) and the zexy object list obtained in this way: find ./zexy/src -name '*.c' -exec ./objlist.sh {} ; > zexy.txt

The objects list I created(1) also have a description harvested from the META subpatch found in most pd-extended help patches and added by Jonathan Wilkes. The first envisioned version will probably not use it, but it could get useful to find the right object if the search result offers two different ones with the same name.

...

A final note: I am on OS X, so no GNU sed. I downloaded the GNU sed from MacPorts (gsed). In the script we have to change gsed with sed.

Best regards,

Marco

1. using a ugly Perl script, but I'll try to make a Python version to

match the deken build/package/upload tool.
