Working here too. Thanks, again it looks great!
I wanted to mention that one of the most intimidating things for me when I was first learning about all the externals in pd is that nothing was working by default and I didn't know how to get it working. Pd-extended has come a long way since then, and now I know how to look for missing paths, where to find sources and compile, etc., but I am sure there are many others that give up on pd-extended when things seem 'broken'.
I guess what I am suggesting is that something, anything, be one so that the help files can find the externals and the externals can find the help files, by default. If there are issues about organization that are later to be sought out, maybe externals like [pvoc~] should be moved into flatspace until a better solution is committed?

The May 9th build doesn't have the same problem. I've also tried the newest nightly build on both Gutsy and Hardy, they have the same "stacksmashing" error.
Today's build gets rid of the stacksmashing error (for me at least). Please test! :D

So now that I've ben searching around in the new Pd-extended, here are some things I noticed:
- The new hotkeys (clear console, open help browser) don't work.
Fixed.
- dragging the pd console window (making it longer) makes the panel longer
too, even if it is already big enough (which it is by default
Yeah, that could be a lot nicer...

- bsaylor's [pvoc~] and [partconv~] externals cannot be found because the
path isn't added by libdir (the rest of the externals in the folder appear to be in extra/flatspace, so they can be found. adding /usr/local/lib/pd/extra/bsaylor to the paths list fixes this.
That is as far as I've looked.. time to start messing around more. It looks great, by the way!
Also, I would like to learn how to commit the changes that I know how to do so Hans doesn't have to bother, but I am having problems with svn right now. I posted another message about this.
regards, rich
