[PD-dev] pollfns for [hid]?

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I am thinking that it would be nice to have [hid] callback based to  
reduce latency (or so that you don't have to poll at 1ms to get low  
latency).  Could I use the pollfn stuff for this?  On GNU/Linux, the  
input data comes from a file device, so it seems that a pollfn is  
meant to do that. But I recall from my [linuxmouse] object that it  
only updated when there was pd<->gui network traffic.
