Re: [PD] Gridflow+ L2Ork pd-extended (was: L2Ork pd-extended release candidate 1 now available)
Not as comprehensive (no web browser and between instances of PDF beyond what tcl/tk clipboard offers). I wasn't even aware that desiredata did that :-).
Best wishes,
Ico

BTW There have been a lot of unannounced releases of pd-l2ork lately so you may want to check it out. Latest release alone includes universal copy and paste and many other usability improvements.
What's "universal copy and paste" ? Is that like DesireData's direct copy-paste to/from text editor, web browser, etc., and between different instances of pd ?
I mean you can put #X obj 42 42 foo; in the system clipboard and paste it as a [foo] box in DesireData.

DesireData does it all with what the Tcl/Tk clipboard offers, which is a basic use of the X11 clipboard, that's all. I didn't have to do anything more elaborate than that to be able to copy patches straight from pastebin websites, etc.
If you're looking for ideas on how to improve Pd, make sure you go through all of DesireData.

I figured as much when I read your email. I am kind of torn at this point because we now have dual clipboard--one for patch clipboard and another for text and the two are interchangeably used depending on the context.
Going your route is quite convenient as that allows interaction with apps outside Pd but at the same time limits one to having only one buffer. Still, I think yours is better and as such should be implemented instead.

I definitely will. Thanks for the tip!

Ok, is that what is called « intelligent phones » ?

It doesn't exclude having your own buffer system either. What you need to do, is to use polymorphism : a common clipboard protocol, for two different kinds of clipboards. DesireData has that in its implementation, and it temporarily replaces the global clipboard variable in order to switch to a private clipboard because Ctrl+d is implemented as Ctrl+c Ctrl+v yet shouldn't modify any normally visible clipboard.
class_new Clipboard {Observable Thing} class_new Clipboard1 {Clipboard} class_new Clipboard2 {Clipboard}
def Clipboard init {{value ""}} {super; $self value= $value}
def Clipboard1 value= {value} {clipboard clear; clipboard append $value; $self changed} def Clipboard1 << {value} { clipboard append $value; $self changed} def Clipboard1 value {} {clipboard get}
def Clipboard2 value= {value} {set @value $value; $self changed} def Clipboard2 << {value} {append @value $value; $self changed} def Clipboard2 value {} {return $@value}
if {$tk} { set clipboard [Clipboard1 new] } else { set clipboard [Clipboard2 new] }
def Canvas do_duplicate {offset} { global clipboard set backup $clipboard set clipboard [Clipboard2 new] $self copy $self do_paste $offset $clipboard delete set clipboard $backup }
