Hello,

Thanks for the suggestion,

Until there is no developer which will take care of its functionality, bug
reports I think it is better not to make it available via deken, since this
will cause a lot of frustration especially when compiled for different target
architectures.

One point of putting it online in a more accessible way is to encourage people to both use it *and* help maintain it. I didn’t even know this lib *existed* before you brought it up on the list. It’s a chicken & egg problem: nobody knows about it there for nobody works on it / people no about it and use it but there might be bugs. I feel like the latter is a better solution, also considering that’s how all other externals exist. If everyone knows about it and nobody uses it, well then that’s self selection.

Also I dont know if it compiles for win* platform.

Using pd-lib-builder, I’m 90% it can, and if it currently doesn’t, it won’t take much extra work. That was the hole point of Fred & Katja’s work: take the work out of the hassle of maintainig pd external makefiles.

So I would say let stick to seq from miXed.

From you last mail, it seemed like xeq had quite a few compelling options beyond seq.

(I just have here 3 version of xeq, each fixed another way but not ready to
publish the fixes.)

Again, puttign it up on Github and making it easy to share the work/submit PRs allows us to collaboratively publish said fixes.

Howdy all,

xeq looks like a good candidate for resurrection via pd-lib-builder, so I
got it building and put it on Github: https://github.com/pure-data/xeq
<https://github.com/pure-data/xeq>

It’s not quite working yet, but I bet a few of you could help me on that.
Once it does, then we can upload builds via deken.

thats true and sad^1 ... so I  found it and uploaded it to rest ...

^1: since I used it quite a lot of time and had a cool structure for
holding midifiles and using many players to reference for them... (live
midi looping...) ...

... using seq instead for my autopianoplayer.
