yeah, I had the order wrong. It's actually ";pd open patch.pd /path/to".
The enclosing folder currently has to be a full path, as far as I know. At least I haven't been able to get it work with relative paths relative to the current active path's parent folder, which is the behavior I need for libpd where I want to keep projects separated within subfolders.

This is basically because I can't call "pd open /path/to pathch.pd" with a relative path to the current canvas ...
i have not ever sent that message wouldn't it be pd open path/to pathch.pd without the / in front of path for instance if your canvas is in a patch in home/patches/ and you wanted to load a patch from home/other/stuff/ ;pd open ../other/stuff/patch.pd
