Any chance of getting [dssi~] included in this? It has an additional
dependency on the liblo library, but it builds and works fine on both
linux and Mac OS (powerpc and intel).

The advantages of [dssi~] over [plugin~] are

1. It supports DSSI plugins as well as LADSPA
2. It can host multiple plugin instances within a single [dssi~]
instance e.g. [dssi~ sine_faaa 20] for 20 sine oscillators.

It doesn't do VST but other than that the functionality of plugin~ is a
subset of the functionality of dssi~.

Sure, if you do the work. I think the issue was that the DSSI code would have to be maintained in the pure-data CVS, which some people strongly protested. DSSI isn't in Fink. In order for it to be supported in the auto-builds and Pd-extended packages on Mac OS X, the code either needs to be in CVS or Fink, or included in the OS.

You could just make a libdir package, then people could use DSSI with plain pd too (with the libdir external).
