I like how I explicitly asked to not hear that "Pd-l2ork has that" and yet that's the response I got. I already knew this anyway from the sample screenshots you were posting when you were implementing it. (Looks great BTW)
Yeah, I know, it was 100% willful snark on my part. It's kind of like you were asking, "Is there a way to do X, while satisfying my irrational desire to ignore a working solution by someone who likely already did X?"
Anyway, did you look at the code? It's done in tcl/tk, and it does not depend on tkpath. So if you don't want to duplicate all the work I already did, you can fairly easily port that back to Pd Vanilla. There might be a few API differences in accessing the audio backend, but there are small and I don't mind helping make those changes.
Also, I specifically did everything in tcl/tk so that the patch would be as simple as possible. It shouldn't even require a recompile. Now, I haven't looked at Ivica's changes that added persistence. But all versions of Pd have the same prefs-saving code so that shouldn't be difficult, either.
Also, if you didn't know, why respond? :P
Because the answer to your question ultimately depends on whether what you come up with fits the unspoken yet stringent HIG standards imposed by Miller's Pd.
But that doesn't mean that code which does _exactly_ what you're asking about isn't relevant to your question.

Having answered that... Pd-l2ork has gui theme presets for Vanilla, Inverted Vanilla,Pd-extended, Commodore 64, Strongbad's Compy, and a few others. There's also an interface to make a custom theme-- I didn't makeit persistent but I think Ivica added that ability. -Jonathan -- Dan Wilcox danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com>
