For this release, there has been a lot of work in making the GUI and
user experience much more fluid and easy. There is a new visual look
that was designed to make patches more readable. Additionally, lots
of things have been tweaked to make Pd behave more like a normal app.
There has already been a lot of testing on these builds, so it is
getting quite close to a final version. (Debian/PowerPC is missing
now but will come later)
http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html
Here is a partial changelog:
- next visual appearance designed for readability (it can run slower
on machines < 1 GHz)
- default locations for user-installed externals, helpfiles, etc.
GNU/Linux: /usr/share/pd and ~/pd
Mac OS X: /Library/Pd and ~/Library/Pd
Windows: %ProgramFiles%/Common Files/Pd and %UserProfile%/
Application Data/Pd
- lots of standard key bindings added:
Enter/Return for OK
Escape for Cancel
Ctrl/Cmd-W closes all windows
on Mac OS X, Cmd-` cycles thru open windows
on Mac OS X, Cmd-m minimizes windows
Ctrl/Cmd-R raises/lowers Pd window
Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-R shrinks/grows Pd window
Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-L clears Pd window's text console
Ctrl/Cmd-B opens the Help Browser
- you can now use "~" in all paths to mean home folder, and on
Windows you can use environment variables, lie %UserProfile% in paths
- cut/copy/paste now work directly into text boxes on all platforms
- [declare] and [import] now sorted out for loading, much work needs
to be done before there namespace support is complete
- "File -> Save As" defaults to the Home folder (~/)
- fixed Cut/Copy/Paste for the Pd window's console
- included pgp_opengl aka 3dp on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X
KNOWN BUGS
- check http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker before reporting bugs
- Escape, Enter, and Ctrl/Cmd-W don't close the Path and Startup
preferences
- pdp_opengl is alpha and will definitely crash Pd
- loading pdp_opengl will crash Pd if X11 is not open before trying
to load it

Dear friends,
Alex Quessy and I will be teaching a course in Mérida Mexico called
'OPEN SOURCE PRACTICES - EXPERIMENTAL ELECTRONICS AND COLLABORATIVE
APPROACHES FOR ARTISTS' at La Escuela Superior de Artes de Yucatán
from June 16th to July 4th. PD will obviously be making an
appearance...
We want to give the students as many opportunities as possible to take
part in community events while we are there. If you happen to be
taking part in a PD user group meeting (or any other similar tech meet
up) please let us know. Ideally, we would like to be able to connect
to the event through video teleconference (using skype) but we are
open to other ways of exchanging too.
If anyone is interested in this kind of space age encounter please let me know.
Here is the school's website: http://www.esay.edu.mx/esay.php
Frontground is also facilitating our residency: http://frontground.blogspot.com/
Over and out,

I had skipped this announcement. This was released (in
http://gridflow.ca/download) a month ago, during the GridFlow workshop
that was held in São Paulo at the time of the Brasilian Pd Convention of
2008.
ChangeLog for version 0.9.2 (2008.05.02):
* removed libruby dependency

The PureData users group of Montréal met for the 27th time on May 27th,
2008. This meeting was an initiative of Marc Fournel. 14 people came this

The wiki page of the meeting is in French, but even if you don't speak
French you may find the links to be interesting.
