Hi all,

Following Anders, I must say I am very impressed by your work Hans.
Pd-extended greatly facilitates access to Pd for people attending workshops for example.
I found myself quite worry about explaining things people don't want to hear about (the over-complicated bundle stuff on macosx or event pd command-line options, etc.).
Maintaining a boosted pd on the two proprietary platforms sounded quite difficult to me, but... :-)
I have the same remaks as Anders concerning the windoz version (I am no developer neither).
Even if it is not that difficult to install, a Gem.dll would be quite welcome.
Other details include :
- this strange 01-manual behaviour
- the desktop shortcut does not work (it points to pd/pd.exe instead pf /pd/bin/pd.exe)
- in my install at least, Pd->File->Startup does not want to save settings (when i want to remove gem2pdp for example... :-() .

I am also a bit confused with pdp on windoz - what can we expect honestly?
- would it be possible to compile this little piece of art on windoz (sevy probably has no idea about that ;-) ?
- could we see pdp_rec~ on osx in the future?

Otherwise I don't know how difficult it would be to include readanysf~, we talked about that several months ago on this very list but it seems to me that, still, nobody can provide a decent compiled version on windoz or osx. By the way, are you planning to release any add-ons on readanysf~, August?

I also would dream to have pyext included de-facto - but this sounds a bit out of range on windows even if Python.dll could as well be included after all.  By the way, I got several examples of disappearing pyext boxes on windoz machines (it seems that Gem and pyext don't cohabitate that well).

Anyway, thanks again Hans, for this excellent contribution!
best,
vincent

Hi Hans and the list.
Great to see this effort to unify and simplify pd!
I tried the windows version and it looks like a few libs are missing. Maybe I missed something but I don't see either gem or osc except in some help patches. I suppose they don't need to be specified in the startup list? (Sorry if the questions are simple -consider me a typical user rather than developer. I have been happy using the pd-extended37.0 for a couple of years.)
I tried to load one of my applications (running in old extended) and it generated the reports listed below.
Another detail is that the menu item "help/1 manual" results in no action - possibly some link pointing to the wrong place?

bugfixes, gem manuals and examples, and more...

Now, in Windows and in Mac OS X (thought they aren't exactly synced  yet).
