hi all,
i've probably missed some discussions on this topic but i am wondering if there has been any efford to standardize the location of pd and other externals/abstractions, in the light of the sf extern collection.
i've got the impression that everybody likes his pd stuff in a different place (including me) but having some kind of standard would make things a lot easier to organize.
last night i finally got autoconf working for pdp with an eye on making the osx port a little easier to do. but there are basicly two things i want to see solved: finding the pd location and putting the pdp headers in a standard place for libs that depend on pdp.
any thoughts on this?

There is, at least under linux a default path where pd searches for externals/abstractions (its installation dir/extra)
Thats at least where I made the linux makefile install the externals, so that users do not have to use the -path option.

great, thanks guenter.
any thoughts on a standard place to put libraries?

Why not put them in the standard unix spot for them? pd does, i.e. m_pd.h is installed into /usr/local/include. Are there pdp libs that aren't .pd_{platform} files, like libpdp.a or libpdp.so? If so, those could go into the standard unix spot too, /usr/local/lib.
