This is an interesting point that raises a question: How many of the GUI objects can be rewritten as data structures (and how difficult would it be to make some new ones using the technique (esp. to mimic the nice gui elements in Max)? I always remember seeing fleeting DS ideas on the list, but is there a repository on the main webpage for these creations?
With Miller's latest changes to datastructures and [list] I think that many of the great GUIs like Yves' pianoroll can now be reproduced directly in Pd. Some of us like Frank have beeng making cool GUIs and sequencers and stuff for a long time, and I have no doubt that there will be full suites of excellent GUI objects in the near future, in addition to all those amazing things Frank et al have made already.
It would be cool if you could post some web links to the nice gui elements in Max/MSP that you are talking about. Check out the attached patch for my 3d-look win95ish GOP hack. :)
Best,
