BTW, I have a dream which is that the console is tabbed, and the

It's just a silly dream, forget it ;op Tabs in the Pd window would be very nice indeed. Someone just
needs to code it. :-D .hcI made up the tabs, but I don't want to brute-regex every message
so I need to catch where [print] generates user-made messages.OK... It seems it is well buried in the C side. If I'm right, user messages are composed by print_anything() in x_interface.c which
gives post() a single string which calls dopost() which finally calls pdtk_post in pdwindows.tcl. I see no much chance to supply additional information to the tcl
side, do you?Great start! Tcl's a bit weird, but you can do a lot with a few
lines of code.Sounds like you got it right. I think you'll have to brute regex
it in pdtk_post for this idea to work. But since its a plugin, I
think its ok if its a bit heavy since it can be easily disabled.I think the easiest thing to do here would be to create your
own ::pdwindow::pdtk_post and then use the 'rename' command to swap
yours in for the standard one.Hello HC,
i'm assembling regex for filtering out system messages and i have a
problem, which is that $::pd_path and $::startup_libraries are
empty on startup, they only get loaded when path or startup is
modified. Can you help this from the C side?I was actually planning a little hack for this release, then it can
be changed later to something better. But this weekend, I plan on
making it so that the GUI requests the path and startup panels so
that it gets the info, but it doesn't show the dialog panels the
first time.sounds perfect! In the meantime, you could assign me small jobs on the tcl side, if
any. I could for example take a look if the popup menu can be built
in a way that behaves better with compiz..?
Please do! That would be great. There are lots of TODOs in the
source code, plus some on the wiki. Most are totally open for anyone
who want to take them on. Just post here to express your interest so
that people don't step each others' toes.
