can you make a firefox plugin for loading pd externals in javascript ?
I'm sure you could.
btw, i mean the existing externals, *.pd_linux, *.pd_darwin.
that way, you wouldn't have to recode [+~] [*~] etc., because you could instead make a library packaging of all the classes that you can use as-is in the browser.
- I believe it would cost me more to make a C library of those objects and
a cross browser plugin to load them, than it would to recode them in Javascript.
- I believe that most browser plugins, including the existing Pd plugin,
don't seem to get as much use on the web in general as Javascript libraries, which don't require the user to perform the extra step of installing them.
- My main use-cases only require vanilla Pd objects (and right now, mainly
tilde objects).
then also, they wouldn't be running at javascript-rate.
I think we have different ideas about the meaning and implications of "javascript-rate".
Thanks for your thoughts.
Goodnight,
Chris.
