Problem with Textfile and line with float
by thomas thiery 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi pd-list, test this patch, I saw a curious problem. I need to read line with "float" at the begining of a line and textfile can't do this. It's a pity -- Matohawk alias Th-Th www.th-th.fr

Having two or more versions of Pd (both extended or both vanilla) in Ubuntu
by Matteo Sisti Sette 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi, So it is relatively easy in Linux to have both Pd Extended and Vanilla (actually easier than in Windows). Now, how can I have for example two or more versions of Vanilla? I'd like to give a try to the rewrite-gui version but also have the "old" stable 0.42.5 for everyday use... In Windows I used to have more than one version because I often need to check differences in behavior, or check in which version a given bug was fixed or introduced, or a given feature added.... (yeah all versions shared the same registry folder i.e. same settings, and so did even extended and vanilla, but I could live with that) How do you do that in Linux? Thanks m.

Only one instance of Pd can produce sound in Ubuntu
by Matteo Sisti Sette 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi, If I open multiple instances of Pd in Ubuntu (doesn't matter whether vanilla or extended or mixed), only the first one has sound. No matter whether I set "alsa" or "oss" in Media. (btw I'm sure I had seen also "portaudio" listed but now it's gone) Usually there's no problem in having multiple applications send sound to the same output device (not sure whether the same can be said about input)... Is there something I'm missing that will allow multiple Pd's to send sound to the output just as multiple applications do? thanks m.

Re: [PD] run ruby script from [shell]?
by Ben Baker-Smith 01 Jul '10

I had the same problem, on Mac OS X with Pd-extended 0.41.4 I ran some tests and it seems that relative paths in [shell] just don't work like they do with the rest of pd. For example, if you have a pd patch in the same folder as ruby_script.rb, you can't run it simply by using a "ruby ruby_script.rb" message, you have to do "ruby /full/path/to/ruby_script.rb" (as opposed to, say, media files or abstractions in the same folder as your patch). Both [motex/system] and [ggee/shell] work on my macbook. (thanks for the list, Hans. I didn't know there were two [popen] objects) Ben Baker-Smith -- http://bitsynthesis.com > There are four options to try, let us know which works best for you: > > flatspace/popen > moonlib/popen > motex/system > ggee/shell > > .hc > > On Jun 28, 2010, at 6:55 PM, Jon wrote: > > > hi > > i'm trying to execute a ruby script from the shell object by sending > > it the message "ruby /path/to/script.rb arguments" but i get nothing. > > the script works fine from the command line, with the exact same > > arguments. is there an alternative? > > i'm on osx, latest stable pd extended > > thank you > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Pd-list(a)iem.at mailing list > > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> > http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

interface/pd-based standalone applications question
by David Schaffer 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi, Is there anyone out there who could teach me how to make good looking stand alone pd apps, I mean pd patches with a nice looking GUI on top that would play on any computer even without pd installed. I saw this guy the other day with his max based lighting board stand alone app. and I thought it was pretty cool... Thanks!

Re: [PD] having both vanilla and extended installed in linux (ubuntu)

Hi Matteo, here on Jaunty with 0.42.5 autobuild the command pdextended works fine. Have you tried to install a latest autobuild as mentioned before? I don't think you need to compile all what you are compiling. http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/ M > On 06/30/2010 10:42 AM, Husk 00 wrote: > > > > On Ubuntu/Lucid, you should be able to install both the > 'puredata' > > package and the 0.42.5-rc3 package. > > Hi Matteo, > > now the launcher script for pd-extended is pdextended in /usr/bin. > > Pd-vanila still uses pd command to be launched if i'm not wrong. > > I installed the jaunty binary package for pd extended, it runs with "pd" > and there is no "pdextended" command. > > I guess that improvement is more recent. > > In order to install the latest version I guess I'll have to download the > source and compile it, no? > > > > ------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Pd-list mailing list > Pd-list(a)iem.at > to manage your subscription (including un-subscription) see > http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list > > > End of Pd-list Digest, Vol 63, Issue 215 > **************************************** > > -- Marco Donnarumma aka TheSAD Independent New Media Arts Professional, Performer, Teacher - Edinburgh, UK PORTFOLIO: http://marcodonnarumma.com LAB: http://www.thesaddj.com | http://cntrl.sourceforge.net | http://www.flxer.net EVENT: http://www.liveperformersmeeting.net
