[PD] Patch2Svg exports controlled in a pd patch

[boscomac]

Thank you for your answer Iohannes. 

I have tried using the "auto export.pd" but without success. 
My idea was to delete the "pd quit" line and manually use the "pd plugin-dispatch :: patch2svg :: exportall" message by serializing my pd-data sub-patch. 
But I encountered a long error message in Pd Console (starting with permission denied at runtime) so I gave up. 

Finally, I choose to save my pd data (containing drawings) as txt files which I can serialize easily, then reload and export them later manually in Svg format.
