With the larger distributions (like GEM), it makes sense to keep them seperate. In general, I think that the less downloading of packages that people need to do, the better.

Also, what are the chances that Guenter's slider, bang, and toggle objects could be integrated?

Hi Pd-ers,

would it be more convenient for you if I integrated "toys" (the pitch tracker, expr, and other really useful things) as part of the Pd distribution? It would make the distribution grow by 150K or so...

I'm raising the question because I'm writing a phase object for sampling (which someone suggested here a year or so ago) and want to put something in "soundfile-tools" in the pd distribution which uses the new object... it seems as if that would be a good reason to put "toys" in the distribution of Pd...

cheers Miller
