Anyone figure out how to write path shortcuts in messages? In the [soundfiler] object's help patch, for example, [read ../sound/bell.aiff array2( accesses lib/pd/doc/sound/bell.aiff. I tried opening a patch using the ".." then /sound/ and copied the file to the same directory as bell.aiff. the file didnt open however. Ok. ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
