jonathan has already wrote a script for that (I think), maybe it's better to ask him directly. besides that, the most "complete" list is my excel file, which was made by manual copy-paste, and therefore will never be up to date.
Yeah that was actually a pd patch that I have somewhere. Right now I'm revising my tcl search plugin so that you can get a list of all the libraries with a short description of what's in them. That, along with the ability to do full text search, keyword/author/xlet/license/description/alias search should be a lot more useful than a big list of 1000+ objects.
How about making a script from Jonathan's script that generates a web page with a table with all objects? That web page can be uploaded to puredata.info, or even packaged with pd-ext.
Another thing would be a more complete list of categories, as the ones from pd-van are even too few for its objects. There was at least one discussion about it in the pd-dev list, but it besides some suggestions on how to do it, no conclusions came out.
