Re: [PD] declare not posting library loading message while object creation does?
by Christof Ressi 07 Oct '19

> you're right in case of this specific object since this external I was only talking about this special case where the folder has the same name as the object. I just wanted to dispute the notion that [declare -lib hid] behaves different than plain [hid] in respect to search paths. Christof > Gesendet: Montag, 07.

difference between log level and -verbose flag?
by Peter P. 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi dear list, is there a specific reason the log level in Pd's console and the -verbose flag do different things? The former does not print these valuable error messages about abstractions or externals not being loaded. Wouldn't it be great if these two functions could be combined for simpler understanding? thanks for all ideas!

Deken does not report successful installation finish?
by Peter P. 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi, just having used the Deken external installer on Linux and Win7 and it seems to not post a "finished" or "success" message apart from a completed progress bar leavin the user in an ambiguous state. Is this intentional? Thanks P

Current status of HID on OS X and Windows?
by Peter P. 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi list, Having tried to find the hid external library via "Find externals..." on OS X without a result. How would I use the library on OS X? Pull it out of Pd-extended? Would that work with Pd-0.50.0 64bit? Linux lists hid-v0.0.extended-(Linux-i386-32)(Linux-amd64-64)-externals.tar.gz Uploaded by chr15m @ 2015-08-07 14:06:11 and I wonder if that is the latest version? Would it furthermore make sense to compile it from SVN for Linux? Thanks for all hints! P

[PD-announce] Pd 0.50-2 released (fixes backspace key on MacOS)
by Miller Puckette 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

To Pd announce: Pd 0.50-2 is out. It fixes key binding trouble in MacOS (the 64 bit version only). In particular the backspace key no longer acts as "delete" as it did in 0.50-1. cheers Miller _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

netobject updates testing
by Dan Wilcox 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

Howdy all, For those of you with network-heavy patches and interesting in building/testing Pd, we could use your help. Earlier in the year, Christof Ressi and I collaborated on overhauling Pd's networking infrastructure and objects. We have things more-or-less finished and it would be helpful to get some more diverse testing as this would be a non-breaking, but major change nonetheless. Short list is: IPv6 support, connectionless UDP, optional netreceive from address/port outlet, multicast support, netsend timeout, and various small bug fixes and error message improvements https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/577 <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/577> To try this out, build Pd from the "feature/netobject-updates" branch on the Github repository For macOS 10.9+ users, I have a Pd 0.50 test build which also incorporates the backspace key handling fix in: http://docs.danomatika.com/pdbuilds/0.51/ <http://docs.danomatika.com/pdbuilds/0.51/> If you have a Github account, please post any issues to the PR. -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika <http://twitter.com/danomatika> danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com/> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com/>

Name of current path's file
by Pierre Alexandre Tremblay 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

Dear all I am trying to recover programatically the name of the patch file I’m in. The new amazing [pdcontrol] object gives me its path, but I cannot seem to find a way to get the file name, which I can then use programatically… for instance in many help files to call a given html document called the same name in another folder. Does it make sense? Vanilla options only please! p

Re: [PD] Mr. Peach missing packOSC/unpackOSC?
by Dan Wilcox 01 Oct '19

You can send multicast but not receive ,as far as I remember. In any case, vanilla Pd will support IPv6 as well as full multicast when this PR is merged: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/577 <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/577> The only difference would be lacking choosing with network device to use as that code seemed way to hairy to bother with. > On Oct 1, 2019, at 12:59 AM, pd-list-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2019 15:58:28 -0700 > From: Joey Dodson <joey.dodson3(a)gmail.com <mailto:joey.dodson3@gmail.com>> > To: Pd-List <pd-list(a)lists.iem.at <mailto:pd-list@lists.iem.at>> > Subject: Re: [PD] Mr. Peach missing packOSC/unpackOSC? > Message-ID: > <CAMzrnCM9g5NNa4iOL_f0whU9+zorJ0zRcyzanN-DibHVTDKeJw(a)mail.gmail.com <mailto:CAMzrnCM9g5NNa4iOL_f0whU9+zorJ0zRcyzanN-DibHVTDKeJw@mail.gmail.com>> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > It doesn't seem to me that [netsend] & [netreceive] are capable of > multicast communications, which would mean that the vanilla objects aren't > a total replacement for the Mr. Peach ones (since [udpsend] & [udpreceive] > are capable of multicast).
