I little self-posting is in order! mescalinum and I have made some
progress, so I thought I'd document it here.
- on GNU/Linux, pd-gui is a process called pd-gui. On Windows and Mac
OS X, pd-gui is started using 'wish pd.tk".
- 'pd' starts 'pd.tk' in s_inter.c
- when pd.tk is started by the Wish.app on Mac OS X, pd.tk then starts
'pd' using -guiport,
- s_inter.c and t_tkcmd.c are scary
