Oh, and i just compiled Gem and at loading the lib it posts a message about "gem.conf" not being found. What is this file? A config file for Gem itself?
exactly.
i haven't found a way to use Pd's file-opening mechanisms without outputting an error if the file cannot be found. (but iirc, it only writes to stderr - if not using "-verbose"; so most people probably won't notice)
it's meant as a replacement for all the weird envvariables that are in use now. you can use it set the single-context, default font, default window size and the like. the format is very simple (but different from Pd's rcfile/settings). one key/value pair by line. e.g.
<snip> font.face /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf window.width 800 window.height 600 window.x 1024 window.y 0 window.border 0 </snip>
ideas on which things should be settable with this mechanism are welcome.
