It would be super userful to have an easy way to make the various

the file into the Pd path and restart.
I still don't understand why is it better to have plugins all around
the patch than having them in one plugin directory.
Do we expect libs and abstractions having plugins bundled with them?
Or is it for being able to administer them from the same place as
path dirs?
In Debian-speak:
/usr/lib/pd/startup - plugins included with a package
/usr/lib/pd-externals - plugins in a separate package
~/pd-externals - user-installed plugins
In Mac OS X speak:
Pd.app/Contents/Resources/startup - plugins included with a package
/Library/Pd - admin-installed plugins
~/Library/Pd - user-installed plugins
