In the path you start pd from.

Hmm, sorry, reading the source, there is no way to do that. It should
probably read %load-path to find the path, but it doesn't.
You just have to start pd from the path containing the files, or
write in the complete path to the scheme-file in the pd-object.
I'll try to remember this for the next release.

Yes, I agree, that is better. I'll try to remember that for the next
release as well.
