Hi Dan,
I tried Pd-0.48.0-test6-docspath3.app.zip on osx 10.11.6
Paths Documents/Pd, and the sub dir 'externals' were all created
It also gets added, after about one second delay, with message (log 4), which is puzzling, but i guess needed: " Pd documents directory: /Users/federicocamarahalac/Documents/Pd "
Whenever I manually change something (verbose, standar paths, add path, etc) and hit OK, I get an app error, with these details:
invalid command name "1"
invalid command name "1"
while executing
"[::pd_docsdir::update_path $docspath]"
(procedure "dialog_path::commit" line 21)
invoked from within
"$commit_method $listdata"
(procedure "do_apply" line 2)
invoked from within
"do_apply $mytoplevel $commit_method $listdata"
(procedure "::scrollboxwindow::ok" line 4)
invoked from within
"::scrollboxwindow::ok .gfxstub79f80d60 dialog_path::commit"
invoked from within
".gfxstub79f80d60.nb.buttonframe.ok invoke"

(procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 23)
invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .gfxstub79f80d60.nb.buttonframe.ok"
(command bound to event)
Changes get made, though, so the error is puzzling. Other dialogs works fine.
Startup Dialog: Not a huge deal, but it doesn't come to front when another dialog is open. Will this dialog disappear in the future? I think it's going in that direction
Side note: In the Pd Browser it shows "-----Libraries----" and you have them created under "Pd/externals". I know there's been conversations in the list about this, but I wonder if these shouldn't be at least unified temporarily within pd. I believe Deken already says 'externals' everywhere. It would be useful for translating as well. I like "libraries", because it's more encompassing, but this is confusing when the library is of one external, like those in the extra folder. It might be just easier to think of the 'extra' as a library in itself i guess, and have this as a directory entry.
Pd Browser:
navigating to more than 3 sub directories are not showing. For example, the only option here is to open up the Finder, with double-click or with Return:
externals/Gem/examples/01.basic
I had some issues with Deken, where should I write these?
Thanks for all the changes, you're really sharpening the hell out of the gui.. Very nice!!

Here is my *working* proposal for beginner-friendliness: the Pd Documents directory. Also includes deken-workingness.
Thanks to Miller for the new "add-to-path" message.
Video demo: https://youtu.be/YWMnynyIeoc
The documents path is an optional beginner-friendly location for patches and externals and defaults to USERHOME/Documents/Pd. If the docs path is not set when Pd is started, the user is prompted about creating it and it can be changed or disabled in the Path preferences dialog. If the user hits Cancel, the docs path functionality is disabled. A subdirectory for externals is also created and is set as the deken install directory. Once set, the docs path becomes the preferred initial directory for file dialogs to help those new to filesystem hierarchy.
Included in this work: deken can now optionally add external directories to the user search paths via a popup after download.
