To me the point is not about file formats but rather simpler about locations in OS X. If the .pd_darwin document is actually compiled for the processor one uses it will work, no doubt. What I noticed that does not work is the default folders mentioned in the on-line documentation, i.e. for global use in '/Library/Pd'. After I read the instructions online I tried it again - when I delete the path in the preferences and drop the libs in there they are _not_ available any longer (red dotted boxes). Reversing the operation and they're back. I noticed this under OS X.4 and under OS X.6 that I'm using now. My conclusion was that the user needs to do something else when the default locations '/Library/Pd' are used that I am not aware of.

Quoting "Hans-Christoph Steiner" hans@at.or.at:
- Use Pd-extended 0.41.4
is fftease included with this version, or is this just a general advice?
get it here, as a libdir: http://puredata.info/Members/hans/FFTeaseBuilds
- .d_fat should be deprecated, use .pd_darwin for all arches on Mac OS X.
or post a feature request to make Pd-extended acknowledge .d_fat, in order to stay compatible with Pd-vanilla (or start a flamewar on suffixes)
Patches welcome. But if you name externals for Mac OS X as *.pd_darwin, they will "just work" everywhere.
