I am taking a stab at doind things I've never done before, and I'm quite out of my depth! :~}
also, if the *only* external function you are using from m_pd.h is
[i]fft_mayer(), then it is pretty clear that the external cannot load: you need at least class_new() and pd_new() as well...
Ok. I've never used class_new() and pd_new() before. Can you point me in the direction of an external that uses it?
hmm... each and every one?
just to make sure: with "external" you mean some dynamically loadable file that somehow adds new [object]s to Pd?
if we can agree on that, you might want to read my externals howto [1]. (for completeness sake, there are other ways to write externals; but so far the only thing i've understood so far is that "it doesn't work", making it impossible to tell which path you took before you lost your way).
