Thanks for the new version! I am running the Windows version on a rather old computer. Everytime I
open a patch or just clicking on a subpatch it is very slow to open
it. It seems that the whole windows updating system is slow. Just one
example: opening the "Test Audio and Video" window takes over 4
seconds. I think it was the same problem with previous test releases
but not as much. Can it have something to do with the compiler change?
Its caused by the help menu, which is a kludge until a real help
browser gets implemented some time in the future. You can disable it
by commenting out one line in pd.tk, line 569. Change:
menu_doc_submenu $mbar.$help_menu_name "." "."
to this:
# menu_doc_submenu $mbar.$help_menu_name "." "."
and it'll be disabled.
It crashed quite a few times (actually suddenly quits) just trying
different patches on the help menu.
Which patches? This could be caused by so many different things.
Also when trying different patches some objects cannot be found - are
there some more packages that should be included in the startup list? Some examples freeverb~
add "freeverb" to the list of libs to be installed. I added it to the
pd-settings.reg.
all rrad... ezdac~
Its already in the included pd-settings.reg. You need to load the lib
"rradical" to use it, or prefix the object name with "rradical/", i.e.
[rradical/ezdac~].

This is a big Windows release, and a bugfix release for GNU/Linux and
Mac OS X.What's new:
- The Windows release is now compiled with MinGW and has all of the
same patches to the core as the other two.
- Preliminary international character support. It seems to work fine
in comments, not yet in objects and messages.
