[L2Ork-dev] a couple of questions

[Gilberto Agostinho]

Hello list,

So after successfully installing pd-2lok side-by-side with pd-extended, 
I am finally playing around with it. I am extremely impressed by it, the 
new features are absolutely stunning! That said, I do have a couple of 
questions/comments about it, and I hope this is the right place to ask 
them (I tried the main Pure Data forum, but I think not many users there 
are working with pd-l2Ork).

- Pd-l2Ork does not seem to recognize nor execute any of my *-plugin.tcl 
files (pd-extended automatically does it for any file ending with 
-plugin.tcl). Is this feature not yet supported? If so, is there any 
plan to implement it? It would be a huge pity to live without it, since 
there are great tcl plugins available for pure data, such as 
auto-completition, full screen by pressing F11 and one called 
category_menu-plugin.tcl (this last one is my absolutely favourite).

- I am not able to add a new folder to pd-l2Ork's path. To be more 
exact: I do manage to add it, but then when I restart Pd-l2Ork (so all 
externals would be reloaded) the folder is not on its path and the 
abstractions there contained cannot be loaded. How can one edit the path?

- Is it possible for pd-l2Ork to automatically start JACK by itself as 
pd-extended does? Now I have to manually open QjackCtrl, start JACK and 
then start pd-l2Ork

- [gcanvas] : this very nice pd-extended GUI object is missing, and I 
believe quite a lot of abstractions use it (I found that even some of 
GEM tutorials included in pd-l2ork have it)

- [prepend] : very useful pd-extended object (part of cyclone) is also 
missing. Why wasn't this library included in this release? I copied it 
from the pd-extended folder and it worked perfectly well.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best,
Gilberto
