Just a thought : wouldn't it be useful to create a pd-Raspberrypi@iem.ataddress ? I get the feeling that there will be more and more messages about this new platform which may not necessarily be interesting to pure Pd users.
Cheers,

I guess this is a case of working out best practices for development.
Nobody actually develops Pd in text mode, but gettin things running in an embedded way involves a good deal less graphics and can be intimidating or confusing at first.
If you don't want the RPi set up with mouse, kbd and monitor like a full system, it's rather like working on other embedded development systems, you need to see the board as a target host, and your local machine as the development (client).
One way is to work on a laptop or desktop, and the ftp/scp them accross to the target board.
But probably most useful is to use X windows to ssh
ssh -Y -l user address.of.my.rpi
and then just start Pd, which will seem to run on your main machine.
I sense some kind of Raspberry Pi and Pd workshop in the coming weeks. maybe best developmnt practices and tips will be an outcme of that meeting.
best, Andy

Hi guys, Longtime listener, first time caller. I was wondering if there's a good intro to text-only pd. I just got a
raspberry pi, and I've heard a lot of chatter about how the -nogui flag solves a lot of weird dsp problems &c, plus it'd be nice not to have to waste a USB port plugging in a mouse as well as a keyboard/midi keyboard/sound card/m-audio box/etc. Plus my main comp is a mac, and I'm worried making my patches on my Mac and then getting them onto my pi will be a pain in the b.
I've seen people say stuff like, "oh, just make a patch and look at it
with a text editor and figure it out," but that's a bit over my head.
Thoughts?
