Good news ! ;)

All objects in hcs library compile on Raspberry Pi.
On Ubuntu, you need to replace line (in Makefile) :
PD_PATH = /usr
by
PD_PATH = /usr/local
then
$ make

Your example with RPi to write text in a fullscreen window via tcl (with
sys_gui object) works fine.
Thanx.

The new text object allows to store easily tcl code inside a patch or datastructure, I've found this usefull for storing image data... Including it into pd-core would make it very efficient for application designing, there still would be the need for [get_dir] in file processing though.
