DesireData 0.39.A.pre3
by Mathieu Bouchard 28 Nov '06

28 Nov '06

http://artengine.ca/desiredata/download/desiredata-0.39.A.pre3.tar.gz ChangeLog: Desire 0.39.A.pre3 (2006.11.26) (-r devel_0_39; ./configure && make) : * français updated by Patrice Colet * italiano updated by Federico Ferri * tons of bugfixes * better pdrc editor (renamed to server prefs) * removed media menu (split to: help menu, file menu, server prefs) * removed Gdb box, added crash report dialog * renamed objective.tcl to poe.tcl (because the name was already taken) * replaced scons by autoconf and make (starting from Miller's 0.39's files) * removed detection of Tcl (we don't need to use libtcl) * removed the setuid option because no-one needs it; also fixed the setuid security vulnerability in case someone does chmod u+s anyway * Portaudio 18 is no longer supported. * simplified configure.in (detector and makefile generator) * APIs not compiled in show up in "pd -help", with a special mention "(support not compiled in)"; those options don't give you a "unknown option" when trying them, it says "option -foo not compiled in this pd". * switched desire.c to C++, as another way to reduce redundancy in code. * can be compiled without audio support. * can be compiled without MIDI support. * can --disable-portaudio on OSX * added multiple wire connection support * fixed copy/paste on canvas * keyboard navigation pointer makeover * added automatic object insertion support _ _ __ ___ _____ ________ _____________ _____________________ ... | Mathieu Bouchard - tél:+1.514.383.3801 - http://artengine.ca/matju | Freelance Digital Arts Engineer, Montréal QC Canada

pd version 0.40-2 problem with debian
by Paris Treantafeles 28 Nov '06

28 Nov '06

Hello List, I'm running debian etch and after an update, pd was updated to 0.40-2 The problem is I now get the error: PDP INIT ERROR: pd symbol clash adding symbol pdp: new=a6d9182c old=082373c0 try loading pdp before other libraries and this error is still there if there is no other library loaded. I see that this was posted before by Yves: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2006-08/041184.html but since it's happening with a debian update, maybe the maintainer of the deb package should roll back to a previous version? Just a thought... Thanks, p

metro type of object
by timon 28 Nov '06

28 Nov '06

Hi, Im looking for an object that receives one bang and outputs a variable number of bangs, over variable time (like [drip]). I know this will be similar to metro, but It simplifies greatly what I want to achieve. Anyone know of such object? Thanks, Timon.

I remember this space was a > problem when I was trying this on Windows long ago. It shouldn't be a problem on recent Windows. You can always put the whole path in quotes, like "C:\Program Files", to make sure. If I type: echo %PROGRAMFILES% in a command prompt it gives me this: C:\Program Files Martin

I don't find any doc or help-file about matrix, mtx,... It is possible to send me a little code, for example the pix_multiblob-help.pd modified to recognize 2 blobs with their valures. Thanks again.

hi. please reply to the pd-list too Quoting Oded Ben-Tal <oded(a)ccrma.Stanford.EDU>: > here is (part of) the output of -verbose > > tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/pmpd/pmpd.pd and succeeded > Added to search path: /usr/lib/pd/extra/pmpd > Added to help path: /usr/lib/pd/extra/pmpd > Added to help path: /usr/lib/pd/doc/5.reference/pmpd > Loaded libdir pmpd from /usr/lib/pd/extra/pmpd this seems to be a problem with the libdir patch (which - to my knowledge - is not part of vanilla pd but only of pd-extended). probably hans can comment on this. mfg.adr.

[PD-announce] libdir object to add support to any Pd version
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 27 Nov '06

27 Nov '06

http://at.or.at/hans/pd/objects.html This package provides support for the libdir format of libraries that is used in Pd-extended. It should work with any version of Pd 0.40 or newer. Also included are [classpath] and [import] which allow you manipulate the global classpath and the patch-local path from within Pd. Binaries are included for GNU/Linux-i386, GNU/Linux-PowerPC, Mac OS X- PowerPC, and Windows. For more info on the structure of libdirs, see this webpage: http://puredata.org/docs/developer/Libdir .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Using ReBirth is like trying to play an 808 with a long stick. - David Zicarelli _______________________________________________ PD-announce mailing list PD-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce
