Just a list of strange things I noticed running latest autobuild - on

(some of these are perhaps known or perfectly ok. Now that pd on my

is practically out of order, I'm kind of a newbie when I start it up...)
- starts up with message: Cannot read GUI prefs file:
~/.config/pd-extended/recentfiles.conf
That should be a debug message rather than an error, I'll change that.
- maximum object loading depth 1000 reached message when object not
found
What object is it trying to create when it does that? By the way, there
is a nice new feature, you can do File - Save As.. on the Pd window,
and it'll save the entire Pd window contents. That's useful for
including in emails like this :)
- there is no .pdextended file. If I'm not wrong, it's created when you
first try to save preferences, but your preferences won't be saved.
Pd-extended will only create one when you Save All Settings in the
Audio Settings.
- Before exit, if chose to save dirty new patch, an Application Error
window appears:
Not connected to 'pd' process
Not connected to 'pd' process
while executing
error Not connected to 'pd' process
(procedure pdsend line 6)
invoked from within
pdsend pd watchdog
(procedure pdtk_watchdog line 2)
invoked from within
pdtk_watchdog
(after script)
- After quit i get this error every time: pdsend errorname: error
writing sock6: broken pipe
That's an odd one, sounds like your 'pd' process is dying. Any ideas
why?
- Default .pdextended has no 'path' list
Yup, use the standard locations[1] or the new [path] object.

- When using 'path' in .pdextended, many, seemingly pointless (?) errors
come up like this:
I'm no longer supporting setting the path and startup libs via the
preferences. Anyone else is welcome to take that on.
