Hi all. Just a quick one: does anyone know of a way to have pure data default to using alsa midi instead of (ahem) default midi? I couldn't find a way to permanently set this from the GUI, so I'm wondering if it's possible. Ideally, I'm looking for something I can put in my .pdextended file to effect this, rather than flags to start pd with each time.
Cheers! J

The .pdextended file has a flags parameter at the bottom which accepts the usual command line flags.
For alsa-midi this is what I have in my .pdextended:
flags: -alsamidi -midiindev 0 -midioutdev 0
Drawback is that it will auto-connect to all alsa-midi stuff available in and out (but that happens anyway when you select alsa-midi)

Thanks!
Incidentally, I understand from previous correspondence on this list that if you change the number of input or output ports to 2 or more then pd no longer autoconnects to everything (a very frustrating behaviour, imo).
