Hello
I'm a newcomer here, so hello to all!
Well, I'm trying to get started, but.......you know.....Ok then here we go:
Having a limited programming experience, I managed to get the examples to work, that's ok. Now I want to enable asio support, BUT I can't figure out what the device number of my asio driver is! This might seem MIGHTY stupid, but a pd -listdev gives me far more echos in the terminal than the display can handle (btw, running win98se): I have too many midi and audio devices with their respective drivers. So the device I want to use just rushes by, and farewell!
Other inconvenience, when trying to run a thing like live-builder, there seems to be an error somewhere, but the same thing happens: to many lines on the screen and I just can't monitor what really went wrong.
I need to solve this, before really starting......so this the (very stupid) question (by an ignorant dos-user:) how the %šL0°°O can I stop the terminal from scrolling, or better, how can I "back-scroll", or eventually how can I send output to a logfile?
Thanks many Dirk
isn't there an "options" menu in the "-" menu of the window, where you can set the scrollback buffer of the terminal?
sounds familiar.. from my dark windows days.

Hi
Well there is indeed a "scrolling" option there, but it's greyed out. Btw, if only my audio hardware (Mark of the Unicorn 2408MkII, GadgetLabs WavePro 8/24) had Linux support, I'd be happy to switch OS's, but neither system has, and from what I read on the web, will probably never have........
Dirk
I think this is general for all windows versions, but it works for XP, NT etc:-
run the command prompt, and when the DOS window appears, right click on the top bar with the mouse and select properties. several tabs should appear, one called 'Layout', so click this and increase the screen buffer size (height) to 999. ok this and you should be able to scroll up and down.
if this doesn't happen to work, not specifying the device no. in pd should mean pd uses your windows default device, so select the correct card from control panel...
best of luck, Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dirk Offringa" dirk.offringa@free.fr To: pd-list@iem.kug.ac.at Sent: Friday, March 21, 2003 9:59 AM Subject: [PD] Some more newbie questions.......

you should go to the command line the Linux way. I don't now, what's it called on a french machine, but if you go to start, execute and type into it "cmd" or "command" you get a command prompt. Change to your pd directory like "cd c:\pd" and type "pd -listdev | more" to page through Pd's output.

Thank you all, guys....but I've tried all that and nothing seems to work.........pd doesn't seem to take the |more switch on the command line, there's no "layout" tab in the DOS prompt prefs menu, nor any screen buffer setting except for height of the window which is limited to 50 lines. I'll try under Win2k, who knows. As for letting pd use the default multimedia driver, that doesn't give me ASIO and the low latency I need, nor the benefit of my 24 ins and outs, Adat and TDIF interconnections in my studio etc......;-((

if you type your command line 'pd -listdev' and then used the '>' to redirect the info to a text file like this,
pd -listdev > listdev.txt
enjoy Pd and I am sure you will learn a lot about DOS while your at it!
