Hi Atte, Just a quick note, I think you have some pretty interesting points here. Ive been brainstorming a lot of different ways of improving the miniAudicle on-the-fly programming interface and this definitely helps to flesh out what kind of more advanced things people would want to do with miniAudicle. spencer On Jun 9, 2007, at 1:31 AM, Atte André Jensen wrote:
Hi
I'd really like to be able to group shreds, making it easier to have several shreds start/stop at the same time. First I'd like to hear how others address the problem...
Then I thought about some possibillities:
1) Using Machine.add/remove. This is easy if I use Machine.add to spork everything, but first replace (in miniAudicle) doesn't work with shreds sproked from Machine.add. Secondly shreds added from miniAudicle can't be removed from Machine.remove (since that function requires a function). The best solution would be if Machine.remove accepted a string, in which case it would remove all shreds with that name. To complete everything miniAudicle should be able to remove and replace shreds added from Machine.add.
2) Some more fancy sporking mechanism could be added to miniAudicle. I think this has been brought up before (correct me if i'm wront), and although it would be nice, it might be difficult to implement something flexible enough for everyone. For instance I would "need" an add-list (spork these if not running) and a remove-list (remove if running) both associated with a group.
