You got me as a non-pd-ext-user. Well, then just add zexy and iem to
the path. My point is: So far, the standard way to change the path or
load libs is through the Preferences or with [declare]. This works on
every distribution of Pd. [import] is an alternative way to do it with
an external, which only works, if that external is available and if
the externals/libraries are installed in the way, pd-extended
installes them, that is, the paths are named according to the names
pd-extended gave them. (Correct me, if I'm wrong here.)

So to activate netpd's needed externals, one can either do it in a way
that works everywhere or one could depend on [import] and a certain
path layout.

I have the impression, that the netpd community currently doesn't want
to depend on the second, but instead leaves it to the users to set up
their environment in a way, that zexy and maxlib objects are
available.

Ciao
