Digging thru my backlog... in Pd-extended there
is
hcs/version tcl/tcl_version ggee/getdir
I agree, it would be nice to have the About Pd
page be a Pd
patch. If you make one, I'll include it in
Pd-extended
0.43.
Ok, here's a 1st attempt. It would look a lot
better if I used
[entry] to display the Pd version (and possibly tcl
version) but
that object is too buggy to use.
The links work assuming about.pd lives in
doc/5.reference.
Btw- /usr/lib/pd-extended/LICENSE.txt, referred to in the current "about pd" textfile, doesn't exist on my
machine.

I like the sparks and credits animation! Where is this file designed to go in the file system? I think probably the best place would be in lib/pd/doc/about.pd
I made the pddplinks relative to doc/5.reference
Here's a revision with the Pd logo.
Ok, I'm adding it to Pd-extended right now :) The only change I made
was to make the Tcl version use only "." to separate the numbers, not
"-"

to do
some rolling credits,
as often happens in an "About this Software"
window.)
