Hey Hans,
Why not contribute your changes to the pixelTANGO gemwin GUI. pt.window?
What kind of "status" are you talking about since, like most things in pd, the only way to know the status is to set it.
The main improvement I wanted to make was to add a popup for the fullscreen functionality, since you now specify "fullscreen 0", "fullscreen 1" (first screen) and "fullscreen 2" (second screen)
Also I was going to add stuff for the "dimen" message and add more resolutions to the popup list.
Things like fps and profiling just use up cycles, so I don't think it makes sense to be a constant thing, maybe just a message that outputs the current fps once.
PS: is there a scanf type external that does the opposite of makefilename:
[symbol 640x480< | [makeatom %dx%d]
gives:
640 480
prints either a list of all the atoms, or all the atoms out seperate outlets?

I made a GUI object to control the [gemwin] object that also displays its status. When a new instance is created, it queries existing instances to get the status. That way all instances will show the same status. I am planning on using this in the intro to Gem tutorial/workshop that I am currently working on. So feedback would be appreciated.
Is there any way to query [gemwin] directly?
