Dear list,
I am trying to develop some work simultaneously in pd (at home) and max (in school). Besides trying the most to use objects common to both, I will try to design copies of the max objects that don't exist on pd, and maybe also vice-versa.
I wanted to ask the following:
- is there any "compatibility library" between pd and max? If so, maybe I
wouldn't have to try to design the abstractions myself, since they would be already made.
- there are some irregularities in pd's pat format (at least if you try to
open it with max 4). Those can be fixed with a simple text editor and the "replace text" feature. I'm trying to see which should be substitued (like osc~ for cycle~), but would like to know if somebody has also made something similar.
- since I'm not a programmer, I would like to know if the (eventually)
resulting "file fixes" would be of interest for anybody that would like to make a kind of script, so that all the changes could be automatically made (and again ask if hasn't anybody made it so far). Since it is only something like "search"->"find"->"replace", I imagine it is not complicated.
Farewell,
João Miguel Pais
