<p>Thanks IOHannes,<br>I'm interested in PD primarily as an audio engine embedded in iOS apps. For<br>legal and technical reasons, most of the other obvious choices aren't viable<br>for me. And thanks for your ps. You're correct that I'm not looking for ways<br>
to embed scripting into PD, I'm looking for a more script-based approach to<br>creating PD patch files. Honestly, I'm a little surprised that this isn't a<br>more common desire. I guess generally people who want to create patches with<br>
code simply migrate to SuperCollider or CSound or whatever. But neither of<br>those is an option for me.<br>-Morgan</p>
