For the same reason that "/usr/share" has a clearly defined purpose. I am not going to prevent people from doing whatever they want, but it helps a lot to have one clearly defined standard way of doing it. I think I am going to go with /usr/local/lib/pd-externals and ~/pd- externals. Then people can also map their vanilla, desiredata, whatever installs to use this location as a common place to install externals, if they so desire. .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- 'You people have such restrictive dress for women,’ she said, hobbling away in three inch heels and panty hose to finish out another pink-collar temp pool day. - “Hijab Scene #2", by Mohja Kahf _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
