There are a few ways to do this... here's houw you could make a copy of Pd and have it use different settings:
Copy the app (say, to Pd2.app)
edit the file, Pd2.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd
(you can use "open -e" from a command line to do this). It's a binary file so it will look ugly.
Go in and replace the four instances of teh string org.puredata.pd with another string of the same length such as org.puredata.zz
Now you can open the two versions of Pd and each will keep its own set of preferences.
Now here's a question - wouldn't it be nice to be able to have Pd automatically do this by (for instance) looking at the app's name and using that to figure out what preferences to load? On the other hand, maybe in other circumstances you woudn't want that behavior... hmm.
cheers Miller

Hello I try to run two different pd instances with different startup options on Mac Os 10.7.
Is there a way to setup the audio / midi devices and so on from within a patch ? something like the declare object ? Or run from terminal with two different command lines (but i will have then to script the terminal application, which i never done !) Or rename one of the pd applications to fool the MAC ? Thanks Jm
