TODO for pddp
* pddplink:
. standardize server's root directory (use $help_directory from pd.tk?)
- . nonboxed version
DONE for pddp
+alpha2
+ * loading tcl scripts through "package require pddp":
+ . storing them in an immediate subdirectory of the path of pddplink's binary
+ . storing a hand-crafted pkgIndex.tcl there
+ . pddplink's setup appends the path of its binary to tcl's "auto_path"
+ * pddpserver asks for auto-assigning its port first, then starts
+ incrementing from 32768
+ * pddplink's appearance controlled with creation options (an option switch
+ is any symbol starting from '-' followed by a letter)
+ * options currently recognized:
+ . "-box" (standard object box)
+ . "-text" followed by any number of non-option atoms (body text)
+ * nonboxed version (default) has a custom widgetbehavior, which is a thin
+ layer on top of the standard text widgetbehavior (using all rtext routines),
+ so that merging into core Pd, as a new object type, T_LINK, would be easy.
+
alpha1
* prototype versions of the external "pddplink" and two pd-gui extensions
"pddpserver.tcl", "pddpclient.tcl"
