[PD-dev] overriding "internals"

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Hey all,

So for the Pd-0.40.3-extended release, I am planning on trying to  
make the internals available as a library like any other.  I'd like  
this work to be applicable to pd-vanilla, so I'd like to discuss how  
to make it happen.

I was thinking of just breaking out the classes into their own files,  
then compiling things as a libdir.  This is pretty easy for most of  
the objects, but I haven't gotten into the DSP classes yet, and I  
expect things will be more complicated there.  And [list] too.

One of the things I am planning on doing for the tkwidget library is  
making it have a shared libtkwidget.so which each of the object  
classes uses.  Then each objectclass will have its own file, but they  
still will have shared code.  If this works out well, I think it  
could be a model for Pd libraries in general.
