i'll have a look at it whenever i have time. in fact i really enjoy working without scorllbar, as it saves some
space on the display and looks cool (complitely minimal)
In Pd-extended, (on Mac OS X at least), the scrollbars completely
disappear if it doesn't need to scroll.
and easy way of changing pd.tk bihaviour could be sourcing a ~/.pdtkrc so it sets some basic variables.
It seems that should be integrated into one preferences system, with
a GUI pref pane and associated storage mechanism.

other Tcl apps I've seen, I think it could be made MUCH cleaner and easier
to handle. Basically, there should be one spot for each platform that
defines all of the key bindings and menu structure, then that is used everywhere.If someone would take this on, I'll gladly help with the tricky bits. Another thing that would be really great would be to clean up the preferences panels.
do you mean File->startup and File->path ? or audio settings as well ?

Hello list.
I'd like to ask those of you who knows Tk/Tcl very well.
I have attempted and succeed changing pd.tk for my personal use ..
i added extra key biddings and removed menubars .. well, Romain gave me the no-scroll + no-menu script
i have few thoughts ..
if we could set the menu as function, so it could be removable by
a msg ..?may be the window list needs some improvments .. if it could be kept separately from the .m.windows , so removing the whole bock of
code with menubar related stuff if pd_menubar==0 could be better then just removing some of bits of it ..regrding fonts, i have set most of them to 'clean', which give a pretty looking gui ..
may be they could be set by variables in a separate config file ?
i feel like i can most of these modifications myself .. without getting extra complexity like in Mathieu's desiredata ..
the question is, how can such kind of enhanchements affect the perfomance ?
could some extra variables take extra bits of memory ? how efficient Tk/Tcl is ? ..so people on IRC channel #dataflow complained a lot , that Tk is not very fast etc...
setting leyboard biddings i added more the 10 extra conditional statements ..i thoght that getting any keyborad events Tk will
have to run trough some more stuff in order to send something to pd,
isn't it? or Tk has a way of super-super-fast scan trough all that?-- thanks for attention, ilya .d
