Hi Kevin
Gem.pd_darwin goes in /usr/local/lib/pd/extra
make sure to load gem when you run pd, with the lib flag
ie:
/usr/local/lib/pd -lib gem
or put '-lib gem' in your .pdrc file
happy patching.

hi. Adam Lindsay & co.....
Thanks for taking the time to respond....
Cutting and pasting across patches should work. What you describe is not normal; it should work. In fact, that's my main way of learning/getting things done... copying from tutorials and modifying things from there.
I am not sure why i was getting all that strange behavior. It must be something with Tcl/tk already having been installed as 8.4.4. I went through with the OSXPM again and deleted everything and reinstalled pd again from stretch and now things mostly seem dandy. I was using that Batteries Included Tcl/tk installer for my python stuff. Now that i am dumbed down totally to 8.4.1 things seem okay. Thank god for that OSXPM or i would never had been able to track down all that tcl stuff to delete.
Later versions of Tcl/TkAqua not entirely functional, but no one has really tracked down the root cause. So empirically speaking, stick to 8.4.1, as distributed.
gotcha.
I'm not sure how you're "open"ing these patches, but to head off some potential complaints, double clicking patches in the finder is still on the primitive side in terms of its developing support, so it's better to open things from the Open dialog box.
double clicking still doesn't work but the Open dialog box from WISH is okay now.
Chris Clepper has a site with bleeding-edge versions of GEM: http://taproot.dyndns.org/~cgc/
I downloaded GEMOSXCVS.gtar and ended up with something called Gem.pd_darwin I am guessing that goes in in a folder someplace? Hmm...
ps. Sorry you're frustrated, but I humbly suggest you chill out maybe two notches. This is a pretty mellow group on the list (usually).
Actually, i am not frustrated, i was trying to be funny....
cheers,
kevin
