Yep... I need to check how it's done "correctly" on mac+windows and just impose that on unix users (since there's no standard I can find on unix...)
Too late for 0.42 though, it's frozen!

I have a small request about pd-vanilla. Is it possible to replace the normal popup window (when a file/window is closed) :
Discard changes to this window?? Yes No

I use Pd a lot for teaching and lots of people get confused by this question, even people that have been using Pd for a long time... It's very unintuitive I think.

Ha, that's cute, though it needs some getting used to, but I guess that will come quickly.
I just tried it with creating a [f ], then press Ctl-1 and type "mod 16", press C-1 again and type "+ 1", neat.

This dialog drives me nuts too. And it confuses a lot of people. You
really shouldn't have to think about such dialogs, they should be
automatic. The question in Pd is opposite of the GNOME, Windows and
Mac OS X standard panels. On Mac OS X, the standard dialog is:
"Do you want to save the changes you made in the document "Untitled"?
Don't Save Cancel Save...
I think the GNOME dialog is similar, anyone know about KDE?
