Perhaps it's a matter of missing documentation? I don't think, that discussing something on a mailing list counts as "documentation". There is a readme file that loads up when I install Pd-extended, I would expect such a file to tell me of the kind of changes that will totally break my work when I upgrade. Perhaps just a big BOLD notice telling users to check in flatspace folder for missing externals.
I guess I missed all this discussion you refer to, but if I read this list when I am in the middle of workday coding bad PHP or Ajax, I'm not so likely to remember some things. In fact, the only thing I knew about was counter, I had no idea about the random stuff and no recollection of ever seeing this discussion. I guess that's weird, maybe I'm getting old and forgetting everything... ;-) I guess I didn't realize how much was moving to flatspace, the discussion made me think it was things I didn't really use and not a very large amount of externals. Now that I've looked in that folder I see what you are talking about!!! Anyway in this case I rebuilt the externals as abstractions, which wasn't so hard. The randomF I posted was missing a loadbang though, so attached is the corrected one for posterity's sake... ~David Anyway I missed a loadbang in my last patch, so here are the ~David On 6/3/07, Frank Barknecht <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

IIRC the "warning" was kind of discussed several times on the Gem/Pd-related lists, but nevertheless: the MarkEx files have been moved out of Gem to their own "library" called "markex" in pd-extended. There they are also part of what's called "flatspace" in pd-extended-lingo.
