Hello list,
I've been adding stuff to Pd (on WinMe) and I've noticed some things I need help with:
[filterbank~] and [formant~] make my Pd crash (just writing them)
my help file for [bilge] is actually a fragment of the help file for [choice]. Does anyone have the good help file?
right-clicking for 'Help' on any abstraction (e.g. hilbert~) opens /doc/5.reference/canvas.pd, which is a help file for [table]. Is there a way to tell Pd there are help files for abstractions? (and why do I land on the [table]-help?)
And a real newbie question: once I have the dll's and stuff in the right places, can I safely get rid of the .c, .h, etc. files? This is just to clean up my folders.
Thanks again, Guilherme

deleting .c and .h files should not cause your externals to crash. sorry, but that's the only of your questions i can answer...

yes indeed, but maybe it's a bad idea to "clean up folders" in such manner

not to antagonize, but i was just trying to give as honest an answer as possible to Guilherme's question. AFAIK there are plenty of reasons _not_ to delete the source -- in my case because I may want it later as a reference or as a basis for something else I'm building; or just in case I want to rebuild the external with the spiffy new whiz-bang super-optimizing C-compiler...
nonetheless, the externals shouldn't stop working if you delete (or move) the sources -- i for one like my sources in 'src', my libraries in 'lib', my programs in 'bin', ... and my externs in 'externs'...
all of this goes out the window as soon as we start talking about patches or non-compiled data distributed with an external, but i don't really want to go there right now.
peace, love, and marmosets, Bryan

it's particularly a bad idea when you want to have an insight in order to know where the crash happens ( in particular, for formant~ and filterbank~ ).
for now, i have no idea why they crash on Win ME, i've checked them on my platform ( linux ) and they ( still ) seem to work..
cheers,
