that's funny, data structures in pd is quite underdeveloped, and  
apparently there are no signs of becoming better. I've just been looking  
at ircam's ftm library, and it's really much more complete, mature and  
powerful. don't know if this serves as a good example, but when I saw the  
words "data structures" it sounded ironical to me :)
