Hallo!
well, "pd --help" works perfectly and writes the help to the stderr. however, on windows, the stderr is sent to nirvana (there have been a number of posts on this topic (regarding the "-stderr" - flag), see the archives)
to reopen the discussion: isn't it possible to get also the stderr in the tk window? because some libraries like e.g. FANN (ann_mlp external) writes all the debug informations to the stderr and thats not very handy (and not handy at all on windows ...:(
