what would be the benefit of pd-next over purr data
If it's just about giving colors to vanilla.. why can't this just merge with vanilla??

thank you for the heads up! Will try how much more i can color besides just the background with Tcl... but i have a feeling they removed all the hooks for it

Hi
Years ago i could change the colors of the default background, objects, wires and in- and outlets and all that stuff by either editing pd-gui.tcl or by using the object [sys_gui] in the "hcs" external.
Meanwile some adressing of these objects have changed in the code... i cannot make out from the sourcecode what these are.
Also i read there are things like gui-plugins for pd to do this, but i cannot seem to find these anywhere.
Anyone could point me in the right direction to do this?
(i know i could use Purr-data as it has a theming feature build in, but i need it in vanilla too)
Cheers!
