frontends was Re: building a mouse trap

[_-¯-_]

 |On another topic, I've noticed that at least 5 people are interested in using
 |Pd with alternative front ends...  I'm working now on command-line options

while on frontends, how about running pd + pd-gui on two different machines=?
so that you can start pd -nogui bla.pd on for example remote machine,
later connect to it comme ./mypdfrontend -host remote.machine.com ..
when you quit the frontend, the barebones pd just remians runnign, much like
vnc (http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/) works ..
the tk interface already does (some of its) communication via local network with
the pd-backend ?



also, miller can you make receive's (and send's) symbol settable?

netreceive access control?
