[PD] new to the list + ideas

[clemos]

hi all

thanks for all the answers and docs :)

I knew about all the net functions of pd, and used them quite often, 
so the hackitectura stuff is really interresting, but brings nothing
new to me...

What I meant was not to output a 'closed' app that would not be
modifiable, or to have a definetely opaque front view of some patch,
but more to have an easy way to publish pd-patches on the web.
as pd-patches are only text, they are easy to share over the web, etc,
so they are perfect as they are ...
the player would display them, you could play with it on a HTML page,
and download the file if you want to modifiy it with the pd GUI... so
that it's still open-source (more or less like svg stuffs)

the two plugin projects Iohannes sent are really interresting...
I'm gonna study them a bit...

about gripd, I heard of it, but once again, it's not what I meant :
with gripd, you can build a new GUI only for one patch, but there's no
new interface to create the patch itself.
seems to me that actually the gripd solution is more or less what I
can do now with flash through flashserver or netreceive/send
but maybe i'm wrong ?

the point is I'm mainly looking for a new interface to directly build
patches, and not only to play pre-build patches...
and this new interface (maybe I should say 'API' ) would ease the
generation of pd patches.
the actual pd-script interface looks quite limited as for exemple you
can't get the error messages, you can't get the caracteristics of a
function box you create with it (n of inlets/outlets, etc), etc...
or maybe I'm wrong again...

what I do during my performances is to directly build pd patches from
scratch, so i would like to be able to 'customize' the GUI to make it
faster or more efficient for my use, and maybe more interresting
graphically...


all the best
