Hi Chuckk,

I'm on WinXP, with Pd 0.38.3. There's a GUI for startup binaries and flags... One odd thing about it is that deleting something from any of these fields, and hitting the Apply and Save Settings buttons over and over has no effect: the commands that didn't work are reinserted when I restart Pd. I can deal with that...
This is a bug of the 0.38, use 0.39 or manually edit the entries in Windows' registry.
So, if I have gem.dll and zexy.dll in particular locations, shouldn't I be able to paste the entire paths to them in quotes into the "binaries to load on startup", and it will find them? I also put in the -path and -lib flags suggested in the readmes.
Make sure you use the correct name - pd is case sensitive. Maybe you want to try a startup command like:
pd -lib MY_GEM_DIRECTORY\Gem
This works for me.
Also, in reference to .pdrc, what is the syntax for it? Should I just type a bunch of flags into a text editor and save as .pdrc?
I'm not really sure, but I think .pdrc is for OSX only. On Windows all settings are saved in the registry.
