The funny thing is that I started this thread a couple of days ago and these last posts about "SLOC" and "COCOMO" are totally cryptic to me!!! My original question was: how to build graphical user interfaces for pd patches that would look more like standard software and be less "disturbing" to non-pd devellopers (especially meaningfull when building a virtual lighting board for instance, like this guy I met in Avignon, France the other day with a max patch, he had even found a way to remotely control it with his Iphone... very impressive). The other part of the question was : how to bundle the no-gui pd patch with the new interface and all the pd install files so the patch could be distributed as a standard application on any... say... windows computer... or else). A couple of people have mentioned the processing environement; If anyone has new tips to bring up, I'd be more than happy to know: would visual basic, python or Qt do the job? <BR>

Thank you all for your involvement!<BR>

People who want to continue to discuss "SLOCOMO" issues (whatever it is...) are, of course, very welcome to do so, but it might be a good idea to start a new, dedicated thread for this highly technical subject.<BR>

I hope I did not offense anyone, it really isn't my point: I love all Pd related questions.<BR>

If the <BR>> point is being supported by SLOC and COCOMO, then SLOC and COCOMO become <BR>> as on-topic as anything else used to support an argument about something <BR>> on-topic.<BR>> <BR>> I agree with the point as much as anyone else, but I disagree with the <BR>> means to support it. I'd rather put no figures at all, than figures that <BR>> are not meaningful.<BR>> <BR>> _ _ __ ___ _____ ________ _____________ _____________________ ...<BR>> | Mathieu Bouchard, Montréal, Québec. téléphone: +1.514.383.3801<BR><BR> <br /><hr />Hotmail: Free, trusted and rich email service. <a href='https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969' target='_new'>Get it now.</a></body>
