On GNU/Linux and Windows, -stdpath work like this: [declare -
stdpath ../extra/<somedir>]. On Mac OS X, you need to omit the
"../", i.e. [declare -stdpath extra/<somedir>]. Since that means
that [declare] with -stdpath has broken behavior, I want to suggest a
change that would make it more intuitive but would break on all
platforms:
Right now, I don't see any reason why -stdpath should include the "../
extra" part. Since all externals have been included in "pd/extra" by
convention for a long time, it seems to me that it would make the
most sense to make -stdpath relative to "/path/to/pd/extra". (I
remember many years ago some people using an 'externs' folder, but I
haven't seen/heard that in years). This would make the above
[declare] like this:
[declare -stdpath <somedir>]
I think the same would apply to -stdlib:
[declare -stdlib <somedir>]
