Hi Kids,
I would appreciate some people helping with a little
pd net experiment - all you would have to do is run alittle
patch with a netsend / netreceive pair in it, doing
a pd ping thing.
of course more interaction - online performative
stuff saturday evening (adelaide, australia time)
is happening and there may be wierdnesses to
mix with..
soon

Watchout: http://gegenschwarzblau.cjb.net/
Hi Kids,
perhaps I am behind the times, a 0.26 release. But I wanted to look
at the error messages in the (non-functioning) midi startup
routines, so I started a recompile with some debug messages.
haha very strange holiday activities i hear you say
so now it doesn't start anymore, it seems that the call to
pd-gui is crashing (calling pd-gui direct segfaults) and
the pd process is waiting around for it forever. starting
pd-gui with some error message fprintfs tells me that
Tk_Main is being called but not calling Tcl_AppInit before
the segfault.
if it helps, gdb tells me it dies in TclSetupEnv, which doesnt
have any man pages on my machine (so probably none).
I am on a RH 5.2 heavily updated to 6.0 and 6.1, tcl/tk
8.0.2, XFree 3.3.3.1-49, mostly pretty standard stuff.
i have now installed 0.29, it runs no problem, but I will
probably need to investigate the midi problems, and recompile
with my own adaptions. thus I would appreciate ideas on what might
not work.
any ideas? what might I have forgotten? please tell!
cheers all,
tim

Gem 0.82 is out for Windows. I'm sure that the Linux version will be
along shortly (Thank you, Guenter, as always!) I still haven't had anyone
take over the SGI version, so it is still at 0.79. I'm willing to mirror
it, but I can't compile it.
The changes are:
- stereoscopic rendering
- a primitive triangle object
- the particles objects are now frame rate independent
- new particle objects
- more help files
- bug fixes
Make sure to read the release notes in the doc directory for a complete
update. I'm feeling inspired to do some more documentation, especially with
the particle objects, so there may be another point release in a couple of
weeks. As always, changes, bugs, requests, etc. are appreciated.
You can get it at the usual place:
http://www.danks.org/mark/GEM/

Assuming that new releases get folded in quickly, this sounds good to me.
Miller and I deliberately kept Pd and GEM separate, although it always
causes confusion to new users.
This solves two of the big problems: making sure that the individual
packages are always available and the time commitment on the authors' parts
to deal with it.

With the larger distributions (like GEM), it makes sense to keep them
seperate. In general, I think that the less downloading of packages that
people need to do, the better.
Also, what are the chances that Guenter's slider, bang, and toggle objects
could be integrated?
