Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: feature

Status: Closed

Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Russell Bryant (russellbryant) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add a new Pd command line option, -autoload

Initial Comment: I got tired of using the "-lib" option over and over, so I wrote a new option, "-autoload".

This option allows you to specify a directory of externals. All externals found in this directory, and any sub-directories, will be automatically loaded. So, you can run pd using something like ...

$ pd -autoload /usr/lib/pd/extra

or a non-default location of externals where some have just been compiled, for example ...

$ pd -autoload ~/src/pure-data/pd/extra

So far, the patch has only been tested on Linux.

I'm closing this out for now after a discussion on the pd-dev list. It's not clear whether this patch really makes sense, so I'm going to sit on it for a while.
