Thanks for the response!
I thought they were part of the cyclone library because this page seems to say so: http://suita.chopin.edu.pl/~czaja/miXed/externs/cyclone.html
And plus I was using >~ under Linux with only the cyclone library loaded.
However, I'll definitely give your suggestion a try. Since my post, I have also discovered the "expr~" object, which seems to be able to do what I want.
Thanks, Steve

I am pretty sure that <~, >~, and ==~ are not in cyclone, but in zexy in the form of abstractions/Pd objects. In RC5 you can load them by typing [zexy/<~], [zexy/>~], or [zexy/==~]. Or you could can add the zexy folder to the path, something like this:
/Users/steve/Desktop/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC5.app/Contents/Resources/ extra/zexy
It the upcoming RC6, zexy is a libdir, so you'll be able to load it by adding "zexy" to the Startup preferences.

Hi, First of all, thanks to everyone who's worked on PD, it's a fantastic program. Here's a small problem I'm having, I was wondering if I could get some help: I recently built some patches using certain cyclone objects, such as <~, >~, and ==~. I built them under Linux on my laptop, however, when I came to school to try them out on the macs, PD refused to create those objects. It is able to load other cyclone objects like cosx~, but not <~ or >~. The version I am using at home is whatever is currently in Gentoo. The version I'm using on OS X is Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC5.
When I load cyclone under Linux (pd -lib cyclone), I get a message such as "this is cyclone version....", but I get no such message under OS X. By the way, I don't have admin access to these computers so I must run PD as a regular using, in the .app folder, so installing libs to the main filesystem is out of question.
Thanks for any help you can suggest...
