Hallo!
what's wrong with having abstractions in the same directory as the binary?
Yes, I also think that should be the way - as it's also working like this with all the other externals ...
e.g. extra/Gem/Gem.pd_linux extra/Gem/hsv2rgb.pd
imho ideally, [import Gem] would find .../Gem/Gem.pd_linux and then add .../Gem/ to the search paths.
(might well be that this is already the case, i don't know)
AFAIK it does not work yet - but it should not be that hard to implement ...
LG Georg
