Hallo!
well, "pd --help" works perfectly and writes the help to the stderr. however, on windows, the stderr is sent to nirvana (there have been a number of posts on this topic (regarding the "-stderr" - flag), see the archives)
to reopen the discussion: isn't it possible to get also the stderr in the tk window? because some libraries like e.g. FANN (ann_mlp external) writes all the debug informations to the stderr and thats not very handy (and not handy at all on windows ...:(
now that is interesting: actually i am pretty glad, that those verbose-libraries (like fann, or all avifile, or...) don't spill my pd-console any more. (but i would prefer those libraries to be silent anyhow and just return errorcodes that explain what is going on)
i still think the solution will be to have 2 pd-versions on windows, one that detaches itself from the console and one that does not.
but these are just my personal preferences
