[PD-dev] pdwindow as syslog

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Hey IOhannes,

I was just looking thru your pdwindow.tcl procs.  It seems to me that  
those procs should just go all the way and implement a syslog-style  
system with the same levels.  Then the Pd window could have a little  
dropdown menu on the lower left to select which level to show.

Attached is my failed attempt at defining the functions.  Also, about  
the tags for colorizing things, I think your syslog level tags and the  
alternating linecolor? tags should be applied to all lines, not  
depending on which proc is used.  Then different plugins or modes can  
colorize the text.  Otherwise, it'll be just a big mishmash of colors.

As for me, I think just a subtle alternating color per post, not per- 
line.  Then error posts would have a sublte red background.
