[PD] simulating grid, GEM and a few questions

Hello

I am using vanilla nowadays and i was wondering if someone has arrived at an elegant way of simulating the X/Y control of the grid object that used to reside in unauthorized? I would like to get at least that smooth blend of x/y with one knob/control and i am curious if others have made something to replace it or have an abs that can simulate what i was sharing

Also

is it possible to run GEM via vanilla on a mac?

I'm running Pd 0.47.1 with osx 10.11.6

after grabbing it with deken it still does not work so i am wondering if there is a stash of binaries for it somewhere?

Thank you!
