Re: [PD] pd-extended 0.42.5 packages for many Ubuntu releases, i386/amd64

Re: [PD] pd-extended 0.42.5 packages for many Ubuntu releases, i386/amd64
Sure, if you add an Ubuntu repository to your apt sources.list, that can definitely cause problems. But if you manually download a single Ubuntu package and install it on Debian, then any problems that package might cause can be fixed by doing apt-get remove my-ubuntu-package. .hc On 09/25/2012 03:49 AM, dreamer wrote: Well, I've seen systems break before when doing this (take an ubuntu package from launchpad), so I'd really rather not.

Re: [PD] creation arg, distinction between 0 and no arg, WAS Re: Splitting Objects
If you use Pd-l2ork there is no need for dirty hacks. Using... [list append $@] ... you can get all the arguments to the abstraction. Obviously once you have them you can check to see whether the argument exists, and if it does not set a default value. If you use iemguts or my patch on the tracker that gives you parent args all the way up to the toplevel you can encapsulate the process of setting default arg values in an abstraction. -Jonathan - Original Message - From: Cyrille Henry c...@chnry.net To: pd-list@iem.at Cc: Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2012 12:35 PM Subject: Re: [PD] creation arg, distinction between 0 and no arg, WAS Re: Splitting Objects Le 25/09/2012 17:07, Patrice Colet a écrit : Maybe dirty but skillful!

Re: [PD] messages language
I did a search for sinesum with my gui-plugin and got the following (ignoring some which just use sinesum in an example patch): doc/5.reference/all about arrays.pd doc/5.reference/table-help.pd doc/2.control.examples/15.array.pd A few points: 1. Pd's right-click Help is functionally useless for arrays. You have to open the graph and click directly on an array element to get array-help.pd. Otherwise Pd assumes (correctly) that you're clicking a canvas and brings up canvas-help.pd. I put links for arrays, subpatches, tables, etc. in the updated doc for canvas-help.pd but it's still difficult to find. 2. Typical responses on this list (like mine above) assume the user knows how to browse the Pd docs, which are located in different places depending on your system. Although the user can click ctrl-b to bring up a platform independent doc browser, it still takes 2 clicks to get to any of the docs listed above and is generally a pain in the ass to try to remember whether some doc was located in 1.manual, manuals, or god forbid 7.stuff. 3.
