Hi all,
Following Anders, I must say I am very impressed by your work Hans. Pd-extended greatly facilitates access to Pd for people attending
workshops for example. I found myself quite worry about explaining things people don't want
to hear about (the over-complicated bundle stuff on macosx or event pd
command-line options, etc.). Maintaining a boosted pd on the two proprietary platforms sounded
quite difficult to me, but... :-) I have the same remaks as Anders concerning the windoz version (I am
no developer neither). Even if it is not that difficult to install, a Gem.dll would be quite
welcome. Other details include :
- this strange 01-manual behaviour
- the desktop shortcut does not work (it points to pd/pd.exe instead
pf /pd/bin/pd.exe)
On the TODO list.
- in my install at least, Pd->File->Startup does not want to save
settings (when i want to remove gem2pdp for example... :-() .
I think this is a standing bug in Pd I think...
I am also a bit confused with pdp on windoz - what can we expect
honestly?
- would it be possible to compile this little piece of art on windoz
(sevy probably has no idea about that ;-) ?
- could we see pdp_rec~ on osx in the future?
Nothing for now, unless someone ports it to Windows. I think it should
be possible using MinGW and Quicktime, and maybe not even that hard
since MinGW provides a very Linux-like environment and Quicktime is
basically the same on Windows and Mac, AFAIK.
Otherwise I don't know how difficult it would be to include
readanysf~, we talked about that several months ago on this very list
but it seems to me that, still, nobody can provide a decent compiled
version on windoz or osx. By the way, are you planning to release any
add-ons on readanysf~, August?
I also would dream to have pyext included de-facto - but this sounds
a bit out of range on windows even if Python.dll could as well be
included after all. By the way, I got several examples of
disappearing pyext boxes on windoz machines (it seems that Gem and
pyext don't cohabitate that well).
If someone gives me a binary, I can throw it in for now. But it should
to be added to the pd-extended build system to guarantee that its in
future distros.
Anyway, thanks again Hans, for this excellent contribution!
Thanks for the sponsors for spurring this effort:
- Thanks to those of you who have sent me donations, it definitely is
appreciated and keeps me going.
- The cross-platform development was sponsored by Digital Media
Research Centre the University of the West of England, Bristol,
organized by Martin Dupras
- The Windows development was sponsored by the Music Acoustics Group,
Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, Stockholm and the S2S^2 European
coordinating action, organized by Anders Friberg
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Its time to eat!

best, vincent

Great to see this effort to unify and simplify pd! I tried the windows version and it looks like a few libs are
missing. Maybe I missed something but I don't see either gem or osc
except in some help patches. I suppose they don't need to be
specified in the startup list? (Sorry if the questions are simple
-consider me a typical user rather than developer. I have been happy
using the pd-extended37.0 for a couple of years.) I tried to load one of my applications (running in old extended) and
it generated the reports listed below. Another detail is that the menu item "help/1 manual" results in no
action - possibly some link pointing to the wrong place? /Anderslimit v0.1, written by Olaf Matthes olaf.matthes@gmx.de plus v0.2, written by Olaf Matthes olaf.matthes@gmx.de switch ... couldn't create [demultiplex] part of zexy-2.1 Copyright (l) IOhannes m zmölnig, 1999-2005 forum::für::umläute IEM compiled: Nov 21 2005 dumpOSC 10011 ... couldn't create OSCroute /QM_LEFT ... couldn't create OSCroute /QM_RIGHT ... couldn't create OSCroute /YPOS_LEFT ... couldn't create OSCroute /YPOS_RIGHT ... couldn't create OSCroute /QM_TOP ... couldn't create OSCroute /XPOS_TOP ... couldn't create OSCroute /QM ... couldn't create OSCroute /YPOS_ALL ... couldn't create expr, expr~, fexpr~ version 0.4 under GNU General Public License sendOSC ... couldn't create [mavg] part of zexy-2.1 Copyright (l) IOhannes m zmölnig, 1999-2005 forum::für::umläute IEM compiled: Nov 21 2005 OSCroute /angry ... couldn't create OSCroute /happy ... couldn't create OSCroute /sad ... couldn't create dumpOSC 10002 ... couldn't create grid grid1 400 -1 1 400 -1 1 0 0.005 0.005 1 1 -59 204 ... couldn't create gemmouse ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemwin ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create text3d K-E+ ... couldn't create text3d K+E+ ... couldn't create text3d K+E- ... couldn't create text3d K-E- ... couldn't create gemmouse ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create text3d tender ... couldn't create text3d happy ... couldn't create text3d angry ... couldn't create text3d sad ... couldn't create gemwin ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create gemmouse ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemhead ... couldn't create translateXYZ ... couldn't create gemwin ... couldn't create text3d strong ... couldn't create text3d gentle ... couldn't create text3d light ... couldn't create text3d expr ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create switch ... couldn't create borax v0.1, written by Olaf Matthes olaf.matthes@gmx.de error: inlet: expected '' but got 'connect' ... you might be able to track this down from the Find menu. error: inlet: expected '' but got 'typetags'
