[PD] cooled~ for OSX intel

[Pagano, Patrick]

I am not sure if this is directed at me or not. I was asking if someone had compiled cooled~ that Yves wrote working on intel. I wrote a patch using it years ago and it was quite nice. Just recently when I was trying to show it to someone it gave an error about macho-o architecture. I checked out the very nice patch that was shared but noted that it did not have a random in it. I am sorry if I gave the impression that I want somebody to do it FOR me, but without that, nice as it is, I could not use it for my patch. I am not a super coder or compiler but certainly not afraid to write my own patches. Sorry if it came off as demanding or ungrateful

yup well said - except i can't say i
have any such feeling for peoples
individual financial containment. 

to say someone is employed by here or
there, means nothing to their output and
the ammount of free time they are giving
to such and such a project, so please
don't make such generalisations in the
future.

in terms of code then yeah, you are
right, what you have distributed is a
great resource for anyone to improve on,
ecxcept.. if you don't release your work
and give it a licesne then you are not
really allowing your work to be further
edited and redistrubuted.. 
(perhaps you are more worried that
people will make better of your own work
than you do yourself, but in that case
who's the fool?)

i understand your frustration with
endless requests for variation and
improvement, but that is purely
hypothetical and you can choose to
ignore all requests for evermore

but i do agree with you that just like
all the code in the repository a pd
patch contains room for improvement and
those changes only make the work
stronger.

btw, your intial work was for me quite
inspiring. thanks for the code.. 

cheers,
