This "page with code" is actually containing the Pd patch, in text form.
Patches in Pd are text files, so you can just copy that code into notepad, save the file as filename.pd (be sure to change the type to 'all files') and launch it with Pd. Of course, this method is cumbersome when dealing with a patch that may include a number of abstractions with it, as well as the fact that the file name is fairly arbitrary depending on what you name it with your text editor.
To solve this people will often zip their patches, or more often (due to the high number of GNU/Linux users) tarball it, which has the extension *.tgz or *.tar.gz. You will need another program (I recommend Iceows or 7-zip) to open these on Windows XP. I believe the archive now supports attachments, but I could be wrong. It's mostly now a matter of preference. I prefer the zipped bundles.

First off, thanks everyone for these great suggestions!
Here's a simple slicer/slice player that uses the powerful Aubio externals for beat/transient detection: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2006-10/043536.htmlI downloaded this one but I'm not sure how to open it. Is it a PD file? I'm on Windows XP.
A slicer that just slices using [bonk~] was posted recently: Http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-02/046809.html http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-02/046855.htmlI followed the link but I can't seem to find anywhere to download. Actually (really stupid question alert) how do I download from the archives? It seems when I click download on any of the files, it just brings up a page with code. Any help?
Thanks so much,
Jared
