re: 'slow ass coders' usually takes me 15 years to get anything done, the things that are taking longer than 15 years will probably be wonderful. I will link to you something that will make you change your mind about 'being years behind everything else' 3:33:28 seconds of some /pd-0.45-4/bin$ ./pd
the pdBerlin has some nice examples of using Chris Mccormick's lfo datastructure editor, I was weary of it before along with some GOP scaling stuff, but think I might give it a try. something is weird with this new (old junk keyboard, whenever I hold down more than 2 or 3 keys too fast , jack is glitching like the mouse dropouts. I am used to it by now and not one bit of that dreaded static makes it inside the wave file.
I feel like I have crossed a hurdle yesterday #1 loadable filename list for scrolling through presets instead of searching with the dialog[ cant that dialog be used as a directory tool? I mean it allready does what everyone want's a directory listing to do, splits up the file name from the patch, etc... just make it an atom.
#2 I somehow miraculously figured out how to count up a binary sequence like that is the oputput of the euclidian function for slick beats [1 0 1 0 1 1 0( and convert it to something that can be used as a mode for scales [2 2 1 2( my method does not yet work for sequencs that start with 0 -rotations but that doesen't bother me one bit. I ould have done it so easy with c, assembly language or even machine code but doing that graphically had my panties in a wad.

I'll have to have a look and see what the ideas are... I don't know anything yet. Anyhow I think there are a couple of things that are higher priority: getting editing to be more user-friendly, and getting the IEM GUIs to behave better. And I'm afraid I can only write code at a fraction of the speed others can - so PD vanilla will always seem years behind everything else.

Dear list,
First of all i'd like to say that i'm very impressed by the potential of data structures in Pd. I've always kind of ignored this feature and it's a >>pity because it's really worth diving into it.That being said I think that help and example patches are far from sufficient for beginners, and if it wasn't for Chris McCormick's s->>abstractions I would have been able to really figure out how to use them (stuff like how to make an entire polygon draggable, how to use >>GOP with proper scaling, etc.).
It's not just the documentation, it's the interface. Having to walk linked-lists of graphically unlinked objects is bad. Having to use boilerplate to find the >head of a glist just to create a scalar is bad.
I think Pd-l2ork is getting close to a release with my new data structure stuff in it. It's a first step at addressing some of these issues.
and any prospects of that stuff making it into vanilla or pd-ext, for the non-unix users out there?
