Hi,

without wanting to be a nuisance - what are your rough timescales for windows (I'm a developer myself so I know that anything you say will be subject to change :-)).

I find that at the moment PD is becoming one of my main music making tools and some of the things comming up look quite useful...

cheers

Hi all,

I've finally got 0.35 test 5 ready (for linux only, sorry.) There are two major new features:

1. "graphs" and subpatches are the same thing. You can "open" a graph

by right-clicking it. Get properties on a canvas to make it show up as a graph on its parent. You can make control panels this way.

2. "data" templates can be changed and the data will conform

to the new data structure. You can add or rename fields for example. A new "struct" object replaces "template" and allows you to name it explicitly so you don't have to monkey with the canvas name anymore. The "scalar" object is gone; scalars are now just "data" and are saved with the patch.

One minor thing which will help windows people when it comes out on MSW: you can put spaces in paths! This seems to have been the major problem people have had running Pd in MSW.

I'm now going to try to improve Linux audio/MIDI support and fix other problems as noted in "notes.txt" in the source directory...

cheers Miller
