What I'd like to see is a standard Pd patch that is loaded in the place of preferences. Then you could configure your Pd setup using a Pd patch. Any Pd user is going to know how to make a patch, so if you can configure Pd with a Pd patch, then you don't need to learn any new preferences file format or system.

From what you had said, it wasn't clear whether you wanted something involving pd patches. "make GUI plugins replace[...]" sounds like it would all be handled by new tcl files, possibly lots of them, and it doesn't sound like something that would involve any pd patch at all.


I don't know how it will really take shape. Pd prefs should probably be in Pd syntax. The GUI is written in Tcl, so it makes sense to keep the GUI stuff in Tcl. But one or multiple files, or which language or syntax is all up in the air in my book. I've been working to provide the raw elements for people to work with and hopefully Pd people will shape this system in a way that works best. That seems the most Pd- ish to me.
