Thanks for confirming the procedure made me realise
that it was because I was saving it as a textfile in textedit then
changing extension to .pd textedit was somehow messing up the file.
When I used word saved as textfile then change ext to .pd it worked fine. cheers geoff

Hi Geoff
What operating system and mail client do you use?
Pd files are text files anyway. They can simply be attched to an email as a something.pd file. When you see that attachment in a message just "save as" something.pd. You can then load it from the file->load menu of Pd GUI.
It's not encouraged to paste patches as text to a mail message body (except for small examples between deveopers) because the text format is not designed as human readable. However, if you do see a Pd patch as plain text any place, just select, copy and paste it to a text editor and then save as something.pd, then you should be able to load it normally.

Hi I have tried to find this in the manual and google searched for a couple of hours but I can;t find it.
How do you put your patches up in text form on this forum?
How do you then load text patches in PD from this forum?
i.e. I have tried things like copying and pasting them into TEXT edit saving, changing the, file extension to a pure data one but no joy.
guidance appreciated as I can't find the answer from googling etc.
