hi all.
2 questions about the layout of HID in cvs, and 1 about the buildlayout in general.
1) is it really necessary that the build-system of HID relies on finding ../../../packages/Makefile.buildlayout? i usually don't have the entire pd-cvstree lying around on a system, which gives a lot of extra work to build this external. i see the use of central Makefiles which are used for one single configuration for everything, however i would prefer this to be an option (like in optional). would it be possible to include Makefile.buildlayout only if it existed (with "-include ../../../packages/Makefile.buildlayout")? in order to get it right even with that file missing, this would probably involve to have a fallback copy of it in the local directory (hear hear!)
2) directories with spaces! would it be ok if i filed a sourceforge-request to change this to "HID_Utilities_Source"?
more serious:
3) is the use of "find" considered cross-platform enough to replace the */*/*.../*.bak constructs in Makefile.buildlayout? and is the use of the rm's "-r" flag cross-platform? this would simplify a lot of clean-targets in Makefile.buildlayout.
