I agree here, and that is the direction I am working towards with any
Pd code I work on. But for pbank, how about just compiling it and
releasing it on its own?
Or there is already a 'nusmuk' library in Pd-extended, with only
abstractions. How about moving abstractions/nusmuk to externals/
nusmuk, then including pbank in there?

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more
direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice,
it can change entire economies. - Amy Smith
