thanks for bringing this to up.
i've removed the offending line and updated the "User-specific" part of
the linux section.

but of course the page needs even more love.

I got all my love to give... let's work on this then https://puredata.info/docs/faq/how-do-i-install-externals-and-help-files?portal_status_message=Your+changes+have+been+saved.

So... how about "application specific" folder (the "extra" folder)? I think that's important to include. It's what I prefer anyway... I had included it but you removed, can I put back? If not, how come?

for windows, you have

%AppData%\Pd will be something like C:\Documents and Settings\myusername\AppData\Roaming\Pd

But seems wrong, I have here ob my machine: C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Roaming\Pd

Now, a question... about

User-specific

~/.local/lib/pd/extra (since Pd-0.47-1, preferred)

User-specific (deprecated)

~/pd-externals (older Pd-versions; still usable)

why is this new form preferred?

cheers
