Hm, I tried to try gripd now, as I found, that I now have a wxgtk2.3-python installed on Debian, yep. But it won't start. The only message I get, when trying to open a .gpd file is:
GrIPD: Using port 3490 GrIPD: Waiting for a connection... GrIPD: Error launching gripd.py: No such file or directory
Around line 640 in gripd.c, there is this
if ((execlp(pythExec, pythExec, filename, portString,
"1", lockedString, (char *)0)) == -1)
which seems to fail. I change the source a bit to post() pythExec and this gives this:
pythExec: /usr/bin/../gripd/gripd
when trying to "open ../gripd/examples/fmsynth.gpd" as well as when trying to "open /full/path/to/gripd/examples/fmsynth.gpd".
I don't quite get, why gripd looks for itself in /usr/gripd/gripd (ok, it's relative to /usr/bin/pd, but this is not very FHS compliant) and how do I change that?
