This "page with code" is actually containing the Pd patch, in text form.

Patches in Pd are text files, so you can just copy that code into notepad, save the file as filename.pd (be sure to change the type to 'all files') and launch it with Pd. Of course, this method is cumbersome when dealing with a patch that may include a number of abstractions with it, as well as the fact that the file name is fairly arbitrary depending on what you name it with your text editor.

To solve this people will often zip their patches, or more often (due to the high number of GNU/Linux users) tarball it, which has the extension *.tgz or *.tar.gz. You will need another program (I recommend Iceows or 7-zip) to open these on Windows XP. I believe the archive now supports attachments, but I could be wrong. It's mostly now a matter of preference. I prefer the zipped bundles.

I downloaded this one but I'm not sure how to open it. Is it a PD file? I'm on Windows XP.

I followed the link but I can't seem to find anywhere to download. Actually (really stupid question alert) how do I download from the archives? It seems when I click download on any of the files, it just brings up a page with code. Any help?

Thanks so much,

Jared

copy the code from the archive and paste it in your favorite text
editor. save it as a .pd file and open it in Pure Data.

one more thing: to start a new thread on the list don't just reply to
a random message but rather make a new message to pd-list@iem.at
that's appreciated. thanks. m.
