i'm using a .command file that opens Terminal and starts pd. i think it's similar to a .bat file on windows.

/Applications/Pd-0.39-2.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd -path /Users/pd/extra -lib zexy -lib maxlib -lib iemlib1 -lib iemlib2 -lib iem_t3_lib -lib iem_mp3 -lib iemmatrix -path /Users/pd/extra/iemabs -helppath /Users/pd/extra/iemhelp -path /Users/pd/netpd/abs -helppath /Users/pd/netpd/doc -open /Users/pd/netpd/_chat.pd -stderr

last time i checked it with pd-extended the -open flag didn't work.

You can get a working one here:

http://pure-data.cvs.sourceforge.net/pure-data/packages/darwin_app/ org.puredata.pd.plist

THe lines you want to add are:

<key>flags</key> <string>-nogui</string>

Here's another example:

<key>flags</key> <string>-stderr -open /Users/hans/cvs/pure-data/externals/hcs/usbhid- help.pd</string>
