Thanks, its actually the collected effort of many, many people. I
guess I am the most visible since I most recently put a big chunk of
work in.
I do not understand your loading of folders as libs (like toxy,
cyclone, hid, etc..). Is this a kind of hack so that Pd searches
those folders for the external?
Yeah, is a hack I call libdirs that I plan on developing further into
a generic library format for objects written in any language, C, C++,
Pd, C#, python, whatever. This would be in conjunction with Thomas'
loader extension and things like the Common Language Runtime API for
Pd that was recently announced.
Here is some documentation about the idea and what's actually
implemented:

Once Pd goes up a version I will switch to you pd-extended and try
to help.
Excellent! The more, the merrier :)

Cool, just what I needed to fix up the script. Try this .pdsettings
file:

Or even better you could write a .pdsettings file that loads each lib/ libdir in Pd-extended and send it to me to include in future packages. I already have such a file for Mac OS X and Windows, but I haven't had a chance to make one for GNU/Linux.
Here's the list of libs included in Pd-extended:
Gem cyclone zexy cxc ext13 fftease hid iemabs iemmatrix liblist list- abs mapping mar kex maxlib memento mjlib motex oscx pddp pdogg pdp pidip pixeltango pmpd rradical sigpack smlib toxy unauthorized vasp vbap xsample
This script automatically generates the Mac OS X and Windows one:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/pure-data/scripts/generate-pd- settings-files.sh?rev=1.2&view=log
Probably the best solution would be to add the code to make this script also generate a .pd-settings file for GNU/Linux.

You could dump all the externals that are in the subdirectories back into the extra directory or you could add all the subdirectory paths to your Path... submenu in PD.

Could anyone help me get the linux Pd-extended examples working? I have both 38.4-RC8 and 39.2-test1 running, but with the same problem: none of the externals in the example patches are found. I can use the externals in pd/extra/ but most of the externals that are in subdirectories are not locatable within Pd.
Everything installs smoothly...and there doesn't seem to be any libraries that need to be loaded.. I'm stuck.
Thanks for any help, Richie
