Yes, it is.

Hey, I've found this external for pd:

Yep, that's one of my many side projects (https://agraef.github.io/). ;-)
Unfortunately, it's written in my own programming language Pure which
hasn't got much love lately, and will probably be stuck with LLVM 3.5
forever (that's a really old version which doesn't work well with other
externals which depend on system LLVM libraries; e.g., it crashes Gem on
Arch Linux where Mesa uses LLVM internally). So I can't really recommend
using that anymore. Porting this to plain C/C++ or creating something
similar using David's lilv library (http://drobilla.net/software/lilv, this
is also what pd-lv2plugin uses via pure-lilv) would be *very* useful!

Yep, +1. Vanilla had that through a GUI plugin at some time, IIRC.

That's an optional project that I would also be willing to do. Do you

It would be awesome! Feasible? We'd have to find out. The autocompletion
could at least include all the built-ins, or maybe scrape the docs, like
the help browser already does.

Best, and welcome! Looking forward to a great GSoC! :)
