I followed the homebrew os x installation directions, but ended up with no .dmg in said folder. Any one else with this issue?

just to warn, the 64b-windows exe file is called rc3. but I couldn't

find any documentation saying which version is really installed. would it make sense to add a clear reference to the document "about pd-2lork", as in pd-ext?

It's the rc4 binary.

I'm still trying to figure out a decent version number.

I did some patching, here are more details:

• backspace key isn't working yet. For now, elements can only be deleted

using the del key. (both work when editing text)

• regarding creating new objects connected to the selected object:
  • is it possible to define the distance from the selected object?
  • would it make sense to make a different shortcut to create an

unconnected object (if connected is the standard), or vice-versa?

• add a shortcut to add an element before (instead of after) the current

element?

• since it's so easy to change the shape of gui objects, would an option

"restore defaults" make sense?

• I tried a patch with 2 [line]s, each connected to a gatom, and while the

numbers were changing, it used a whole cpu for that. Can this be made a bit more efficient? This seems to happen for both gatoms inside and outside gops. Strangely (or not), the cpu only jumped when [line] sends different numbers. When the values stay (even if line is outputting), the cpu doesn't change. Also: I then connected a bang to the line output, which obviously was active when the line was sending something. But this didn't change anything in the cpu activity - that means, the problem is just with the gatoms.

• it would be cool if it would be possible to drag already connected cables

• e.g. from outlet1 to outlet2 - or even in groups.

• when selecting a gop object, all handles of internal objects are also

visible (more red squares). Just to inform, I won't judge if this it "correct" or not.

• if the window is thighter than the menu, the menu won't break and

continue to display in a new line. That is, it will be incomplete.

• window sliders seem to work well. there's a small artifact when the

canvas dimensions are close to the limits (the sliders appear and disappear), but it's fine.

thought i'd check purr data with my girlfriend's windows notebook, but apparently it's 32 bits cause it doesn't work. It has windows 7 by the way

You can probably just download any version of nwjs for win32, unzip, and take those contents to replace the contents of C:\Program Files (x86)\Purr Data\bin\nw

no chance of a 32 bit version?

I can do one.  The reason I stopped releasing them was that the machine I was using ran Windows XP, and the build environment (msys2) no longer runs on it.  I am also using the LTS version of nw.js-- v 0.14.7-- because that's the last version that supports XP.  But for a final release, I can just make an installer for Purr Data which includes the 32-bit nw.js binary. So the initial release will be runnable on Windows XP, and on both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Windows.  Probably after that the best thing is to drop XP support, and just use a 32-bit binary of the most recent version of nw.js for all Windows versions.

doesn't it make more sense to have a 64 bit versions for windows, and not dropping XP support? One of the most amazing thing about Pd is that it can run anywhere, I'm sure someone will be bummed out for not being able to install in on XP

I can wait a little longer-- at most until nw.js bumps the LTS version.
