Well it's the same 'ugly' code that Pd itself uses. I simply copied
the extension list from Pd source. I guess you could just access the
list directly and then not worry about it changing in the future.
The code for [which] tries all possible extensions for the current
OS and opens the first one that exists. Pd does the same thing, or
at least the version in svn does. Probably if the relevant functions
were exposed in m_pd.h they could all be used in situ.
Just an FYI, I tried using [which] on Mac OS X and got this:
/Users/hans/code/pure-data/trunk/externals/mrpeach/which/
which.pd_darwin: dlopen(/Users/hans/code/pure-data/trunk/externals/
mrpeach/which/which.pd_darwin, 10): Symbol not found: _filelength
_filelength() looks like a Microsoft function.
