That's funny. I thought the whole 0.43 thing was about putting the
tcl/tk into one place. In 0.42 the tcl/tk (one of the slowest
languages around) is all over the Pd code, not just in pd.tk.
That's a longer term goal, but 0.43 was more limited in scope.
Basically the whole 'pd-gui' part was rewritten in only Tcl/Tk (no C),
and some changes were made on the 'pd' side to streamline those changes.

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more
direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice,
it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
