[PD] A strange question (yet again)

[Pierre Alexandre Tremblay]

Indeed I think that I will have to do an external… I wonder if there is a good (simple) how-to on GUI external for Pd that are cross platform and canvas compatible… the IEM link is dead and the example code you propose is long (i.e. 1k lines long :) - I only need to take in lists and draw a coloured point in a given coordinate after all :)

Then I can relearn TCLTK which I had to learn 25 years ago when working on v1 of Cecilia :)
