This is great. Just what we need for students getting into pd etc. Great work.
Some feedback:
- Can you make the breadcrumb nav links stand out a bit more? I didn't see them at first and was looking for a back button.
Now we just need the libdir meta info for all externals!

And now it's refactored as a literal drop-in replacement for helpbrowser.tcl: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3585469&group_id=55...
It seems to have outgrown its "dialog" window class, but I manually added the standard pd dialog bindings, so ESC will withdraw the window. (It will also stop the search in progress, too.)
If anyone wants me to add any tutorials or docs that I'm missing to the browser's homepage, let me know. The neat thing is that if it gets large I can tag the entries and the dropdown list can be used to filter the homepage (just like it does with search results).

Sure, what do you suggest? I initially had them at a smaller fontsize then raised them to the same size as the other text. Would making them bold be enough?

I was thinking more that they could be in a permanent pane below the search bar since you currently have to scroll up in order to go back. It could be something that drops down once you're below the front page.

Also, does it scan paths added manually or only libdir libs? Say I have a set of abstractions (ie rjlib, rc-patchs, etc), can it search them as well?

I search $dirs, which is: set dirs [concat [file join $::sys_libdir doc] $::sys_searchpath $::sys_staticpath]
So whatever is in the system searchpath which can be added in the path dialog.
But these are different sides of the same coin remaining:
- when the path dialog is removed, how can the user specify a new addition to sys_searchpath?
- isn't the currently opened patch part of the searchpath? Unfortunately it's not
appended to $::sys_searchpath, because if it were the docs inside the patch's dir would show up in the search, and they don't. I'm using 0.43 Vanilla to test, though, so I have no idea if pd-extended is different.

A libdir is just a folder of patches with a meta patch in it. So just add meta files to your folders of abstractions and you have libdirs. For example, "rc-patchs" would have a meta file called "rc-patches-meta.pd" For help patches, just add a [pd META] subpatch.

Yeah that's better, although I would replace the '-' chars with more of an arrow like '>' or a '/' just so the navigation is more more obvious.
Also, I noticed if you bounce back and forth, the breadcrumbs don't observe overall dir depth, but add on to themselves. IE if you go into the External libraries folder, click on apple, then click on External libraries on the breadcrumbs, it duplicates itself yielding:
Home - External libraries - apple - External libraries

The "/" character seems pretty standard so I used that. Just search for "set separator" and you can change it to try something else.

I tried both and I actually like the > better.
Also, could there be some sort of back button and location memory? Say I'm in a couple levels looking at an external reference folder. If I want to do a quick search for something else, I lose where I was before. It would be nice to be abel to go back to the previous page.

Here's an update:
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/scripts/guiplugi...
- fixes the color weirdness on OSX
- sets some minimum height/width for the window
- adds the "filesystem" keyword to Keyword Search
- hard-coded normal font color to black
... plus the static navigation bar above the results
Stuff I don't understand:
- grid weight, esp. when frames are involved. i just played with it
until it got beat into submission
- what tcl is caching that makes all subsequent searches faster than
the initial one. no clue.
... after using it a bit I instinctively clicked <alt-left-arrow> to go back, so I guess that's my hand telling me it needs some kind of history. (Though it does have a drop-down list of your search terms for that instance of Pd if you click the down-arrow.)

I doubt that's Tcl doing the caching, but very likely to be the OS doing it. Most OSes these days use spare RAM to cache disk reads. My guess is that is what's happening here. I think using xapian is really the best way to solve this issue. I think we should be able to include pre-built xapian indexes in Pd-extended, and in each library. Then everything would be loaded at start time. It would not need to do much indexing at start time since almost everything would already be indexed. Also, it could save the indexes it generates, and only regenerate them when files change.

How long is the initial search taking for you? Since the results pop up live, even with the initial 5-10" search the UX is still decent. In fact I could even make the click events stop the search loop which would make the initial search sluggishness even less of an issue. Xapian might be worth it if someone who deeply understands search technology wants to implement it and get a more sophisticated scoring system for better results. Still, with the poverty of quality documentation I'm not sure how much better the results could really be: [sig~ 42] | [super_complex_filter~] <-- super-complex-filter the input | [tabwrite~] <-- super-complex-filtered output (c) 1999 query_bouncer@compuserve.net

I am a bit curios to try it. Is it possible someone can give some hints on how to install the plugin? And is it possible to run on 0.42.5 ?
I don't think you can use gui-plugins with 0.42.5, but there is an older drop-in replacement for the helpbrowser-- you can get it here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3585469&group_id=557...
Just replace helpbrowser.tcl with my version. Then you can bring it up with <ctrl-b>.
I've fixed a few bugs since then, but that will at least allow you to try it out.

This was the first gui plugin I installed since trying out the beta.
Works great for me on the latest xubuntu.
