Hi
I'd hadn't seen a reply on either of these so thought I would send my solution (having just worked it out!). The issue with declare, -stdpath and OSX is that declare takes the path from the executable inside the Pd application (folder) (right click how package contents > contents > MacOS - so when trying to a position relative using you need go up a couple of directories.
e.g. declare -stdpath ../../../..//Users/someuser/Documents/OtherLocation
This gets you back from Pd in the applications folder to the user folder.
Also, I haven't seen a solution but would be curious to find out if anyone knew of a solution to path name spaces with declare in OSX.
Best wishes

Hello,
Would someone tell me how to modify pd-path on OSX ? When I am on Application folder, I can't get folders activated. So I would like to modify .pdrc but I can't find it on mac OSX... I use Pd version 0.41.4-extended.

hi
i try to load hp1~.pd from iemabs with Pd version 0.40-2 compiled for Macintosh OSX 10.3
here it is: /Applications/Pd-0.40-2.app/Contents/Resources/extra/iemabs
that's the test-patch: [declare -stdpath ../extra/iemabs]
it's probably necessary to add, that this same [declare] works on windows and linux (tested was alsways with 0.40.2, iemabs was always in <pdpath>/extra).
though, the flags -stdlib and -path seem to work as well on osx, but not -stdpath for some reason.
can anyone on osx please test/confirm that?
would be cool to hear anything about it. is [declare] supposed to work the same on osx as on linux and windows? (i guess so.. )
