I wasn't aware of Deken. I found out about it today. I thought it was a
great addition.
Sadly I don't have copies of any of my old projects and I don't really
remember which pd-extended-only libraries I used to use regularly. I
suppose I'll remember along the way when I need them.

Today I've been doing some very simple patches to clear the rust. Pd is
looking very very good these days, so kudos to everyone involved.
