I decided to spend a couple hours writing some good ol' Tcl, and I
seem to have made it possible to create an app based on your patch on
Mac OS X. Try it out on tomorrow's nightly build, or just download
u_main.tk from SVN and copy it to Applications/Pd-extended.app/
Contents/Resources/bin/pd.tk.
Now, I am thinking about how to make the Debian/Ubuntu version of
this. I think it should be possible to have this create a .deb
package with the proper dependencies, including the version. It will
also install preferences and a menu item so that you can launch your
patch from the Applications menu. I think on Debian, it should not
copy the Pd-extended files at all, but instead should depend on the
Pd-extended package.

All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies,
one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better
language; and every chapter must be so translated.... -John Donne
