Hi Pd-ers,

For you non native English speakers, shooting yourself in the foot is a methaphor, meaning that you pulled the trigger on your pistol before you took it out of the holster. Here's how I just shot mine:

NT Versions of Pd through 0.23 have a file, pd.dll, which "externs" link into. In version 0.24 I renamed this "pdlib.dll" to avoid confusing the Gates debugger. However, I just realized this morning that this change BREAKS ALL EXTERNS. The only people I know of who are impacted are myself and Mark Danks but there may well be others.

I'm busy now trying to put out a release 0.25 mainly to fix problems in the 0.24 release... Should I leave "pdlib" the way it is in 0.24?

On our pd-0.24 NT the lib is named pd.dll. and as a really visually Visual-C++ must-Newcomer couldnt compile a external on it...

maybe so should we rename the pd.dll to pdlib.dll ?

Besides is there an up or downsampling object, I couldnt find up~ and down~.

PS.: I have hacked pd on NT to do multichannel on synched in and outs, adding two commandline options -audioins <n>, -audioouts <n> (working on a PII, with RME-Card (ADAT-I/O)) which works. (see ftp://iem.mhsg.ac.at/pd/experimental ) in fact only in src: - s_nt.c, -> see wini-comments - s_main.c -> for options -audioouts <n>, -audioins <n> - m_imp.h -> max channels to 8 are modified
