Looks interesting, it would be much easier for us to test it if you
check it into packages/patches, then it'll be in all the autobuilds. :D
I have two comments on it:
- Instead of having an 'entry' for each line, I think there should be
a scrollable text field of fixed size, like 10 elements or so. Then
that textfield can handle unlimited numbers of paths. Then there
would be a + and - button to add and remove things.
- instead of having pd_startup0 thru pd_startupN as global variables,
it seems like it would be much cleaner if pd_startup (and pd_path for
that matter) were array or list references.
