Hi all, I would like to make a small request for pd for linux, but I wanted to post to the list before putting it on the tracker as a bug or feature request - could it be made so that when you load a sample with soundfiler, the console window does not get the focus after loading the file? This is no small irritation when loading multiple samples, and if one is not running in verbose mode, there's not even any useful information provided by the console.
I am running ubuntu studio 7.04 with gnome/fluxbox. I know that the only message that comes back from a soundfiler load in verbose is that it was successful. Other messages, however, don't cause the console to get focus - they simply appear in the terminal in the background. Is there a workaround for this, or can it be addressed in the code? Was it done on purpose, perhaps? I have tested this with 39-2 extended and Miller's 0.40-2, but perhaps the request could apply for all versions of pd on linux. This never seemed to be an issue on OS X when I was using that. I personally don't think the console should ever be forced to the front of the screen after startup, but should rather run quietly in the background, available for reference when it is called upon. Thanks! k _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
