what i ended up doing for [punish] is to send a "declare -lib
/full/path/to/my/library" message to one of the hidden canvases created
by Pd.
this works well so far, but exploits a few things:
- the existence of hidden canvases with fixed names (thanks jonathan for
the hint)
- the fact that library loading in a canvas (as opposed to adding
search-paths) works globally.
luckily for me i only need to load a single external per gui-plugin (no
need to care about "path"s)
anyhow, this is exploiting some implementation detail of Pd and i'd very
much prefer it, if the "pd" receiver would accept "declare" messages
with which to add searchpaths and load libraries globally (in the same
fashion as adding "-lib foo -path bar" to the startup flags)
