You really need Cyclone as a *library* for this to work, that is
cyclone.pd_linux , cyclone.pd_darwin or cyclone.dll. I don't know, if
pd-extended ships it. After that the process is easy:

A-HA - thanks. I don't have that - just cyclone.pd
I knew you had been doing this all the time recently so I was kind of hoping you'd answer as well. Wonder why it doesn't come with Pd-extended. I should just get tough and build what I need myself, it's kind of tricky to guess what does/doesn't work with extended builds despite their usefulness for most things.

Thanks!
