Ah, yes, thanks! I've said it before -- one of my favorite things about list-abs is their use in pedagogy -- you can get "under the hood" in them with music students and they don't have to learn C to do it (each of the list-abs objects could be written much more efficiently in C but it's nice to have them as abstractions, and vanilla abstractions at that). These iem_tab objects are great as far as use-within-a-patch is concerned, though, so again thanks. Maybe I'll make my own abstractions for pedagogy.

Hello,
I think this has been proposed before, so maybe I've missed it. Is there a library of abstractions for operations on tables akin to list-abs? If not, I'd like to consider how such a library might be organized A lot of the list-abs abstractions could be translated and used for tables. I could imagine for instance abstractions that would fill tables with various kinds of windows, and some that would implement such windows in a named table within the abstraction itself. Also, there might be abstractions that would perform the operations in-place, and some that would leave the source table intact and copy the results into another table. Etc.
Has this been developed and/or discussed already? I would have a few to contribute.
Matt
