Hi,
I'm trying to set up my path so that I can add objects like the loop~ and the fft-filter, but if I make my .pdrc look like this:
-path C:\pd\extra\loop~ -path C:\pd\extra\fft-filter
it doesn't work.
-path C:\pd\extra or -lib C:\pd\extra\loop~ -lib C:\pd\extra\fft-filter will work for just add objects to Pd.
See the pd documentation for the details. http://pure-data.org/doc/x3.htm#s4
I'm putting the .pdrc file in \Documents and Settings\Administrator (which is my current login) because I'm pretty sure that's considered the "home" in 2000.
I don't know about the .pdrc file but Pd cannot read folders that contains spaces (and japanese characters in a japanese environment) in their folder name,like "Documents and Settings". Is this a limitation of current tcl/tk or something?

I don't think the .pdrc mechanism was ever "ported" to windows, as of my knowing it is just not part of it. Wouldn't be hard to put it in, though.

No, its a limitation of pd's symbol parser, which means, within pd (not for the startup file mechanism) filenames are symbols, and symbols with spaces in them just don't exist. I do vote for a more sophisticated symbol parsing algorithm, but then there has to be anyone who is implementing it.
