Hi all, gpointers are used (de facto) to store pointers by many externals and library. Would it be more stable to provide a standard data type for pointers like gemchains, #grids and such ? I doubt, but it would be more consistent.
BTW Chris, you can also use iem_anything to store and repeat *gem lists.

OK... looks like [list append] does deal with pointers almost correctly (I forgot I had done that), but there is a bug when you send a new list to its inlet re-entrantly. I'll fix this for 0.41 but in the meantime you can work around it by forcing a copy of the outgoing message (send a list to "t b l" connected to the two inlets of "list append" to make a copy of the list)...
Ah, this seems to work. I still get "consistency check failed: gpointer_copy" messages however using Pd from current CVS. But it's nice to see this in action generally.
Shot in the dark; so does this mean we can store GEM pointers in lists too? That would be neat because then you could make a non-zexy abstraction-only [repeat] object.
Best,
Chris.
