hello.
first, i'd like to introduce myself to the list, my name is christopher charles, 22, germany, i've been lurking here for some months, and this is my first post. as a welcome present for you all, i "wrote" (patched together out of existing externals) a gui external called vbitmap, which is able to display and modify integers as some sort of 1-d binary map, but you'll have to see the screenshot or try it out to see what i mean:
https://www.puredata.info/Members/syntax_the_nerd/
very useful for step sequencers that would otherwise be built out of vradios, which are only able to trigger 1 note at a time. get the tar, edit the makefile for the proper source locations, put it in your externals dir and try the example patch. for i only have really basic knowledge of programming, even less of portable programming, i'd be thankful if someone could try to compile it on windows, too, and tell me what i did wrong.
thanks in advance, and have fun (that is, when you get it to run)
charlie
