Quoting Paul Schrank scharke@pgeek.com:
Thank you for the responses to "Is Pure Data right for my project". I've decided to pursue Pure Data further, but clearly I need a little help getting started:
- I cannot seem to start GEM from Pure Data on Mac OS X. I found these
instructions.
To use GEM type something like: /usr/local/bin/pd -lib /Users/zmoelnig/pd/Gem
(where /usr/local/bin/pd is the path to the pd directory and
/Users/zmoelnig/pd is the path where the Gem.pd_darwin resides). Checkout the README for Pd to see examples of the -lib flag. If you just try
to "run" GEM, you will get an error! Notice that last word is a capital
Gem. If you get a "can't find gem_setup" error, then that is the problem. Look in the GEM FAQ for trouble shooting suggestions.
If you don't see startup messages from GEM, then something went wrong. Also, you might need to add pd/bin to your PATH environment variable.
So in terminal I open "New Command" then type "/usr/local/bin/pd -lib /Library/Pd/Externals/Gem" which is modified to reflect the file paths
on my computer, but it launches a second instance of Pure Data and not
GEM.
- Secondly, is there a way to see all the available objects in Mac os
x?
Thanks.
