IMHO: yes. And no. Depending on how easy/hard it would be to include it
in pd-vanilla. I guess one would assume that because Pd is using tcl
anyway, it might me 'easy' to use tcl as an abstraction/object scripting
language (i.e. I would assume the dependencies for tclpd are very
similar to pd-vanilla?).
However I admit that assumption might be naive/wrong and that other
better options might exist.
My initial point was that it would be very nice to have some scripting
language functionality included in Pd-vanilla. Why? a) Because I think
it's cool b) IMHO it would open up possibilities for doing lots of
things in 'pure pd' ('pure' meaning vanilla).
