As an update, I have refactored the audio file format-specific code in d_soundfile.c into separate d_soundfile_aiff.c, d_soundfile_next.c, and d_soundfile_wave.c spurce files and added a new d_soundfile.h header for internal-use only. I'm in the process of testing and cleanup, then I will make a PR for people to review & test the existing functionality while I add a new d_soundfile_caff.c for CAF support in an associated branch. As this, like the previous net object updates, is touching a fundamental part of Pd, I hope for help with testing on all platforms.
