Description

audio/pd: 0.46-7 -> 0.47-0

The "deken" plug-in is integrated into the Pd help menu - you can download and install Pd libraries using the "Find Externals" menu command.
New clone object that opens multiple copies of an abstraction and routes messages and signals to/from them, for making banks of voices or whatnot
"Zoom" feature for dealing with high-resolution displays. IEM GUIs are only somewhat dodgily handled (font sizes of labels aren't managed well).
Controllable font sizes for menus and dialogs: setting the "pd window" font size also sets font sizes for menus/dialogs.
The expr, expr~, and fexpr~ objects are included in Pd proper, not loaded as externs as before. THis reflects their new license (lgpl) and should allow them to be used in IOS apps via libpd. Shahrohk Yadegari has updated the source and made manifold improvements in the objects. Notably, they now allow access to variables in Pd defined via the "value" object.
Backward messaging to netsend now works in UDP as well as TCP.
Dialogs now work more Appleshly (changes taking place without the need to hit an "apply" button in many cases). Thanks to danomatica.
API support for "initbang" and "closebang" objects (from IEM library I think, but anyhow you can now get them in Pd Vanilla via deken (help menu "Find externals").
"Declare" object path settings now take effect immediately when you edit the declare object.
(Iohannes) Abstractions, externs, and stuff written in other languages (pythin, Lua, etc) are now loaded logically, that is, if you have one patch that loads an external named X, you can still load abstractions named X in other patches. Miller now oficially Does Not Know How This Works (DNKHTW).
Many bug fixes.
