Hello!
I discovered pd yesterday (0.42.3-0.pm.1 for openSuSE) and I am amazed!
I created some small "mini installations" by playing with it and reading
the very nice tutorial at pd-tutorial.com and the doc that comes with
it. Unfortunately when I tried to use [expr] it took me 2 hours to find
out by experimenting, that in order to use it I have to start pd as
pd -lib /complete/path/to/expr~
usually you don't have to: the binary for [expr] (expr.pd_linux) lives
in /usr/lib/pd/extra/ (being a link to
/usr/lib/pd/extra/expr~/expr.pd_linux)
if it doesn't work out of the box, your installation is somehow broken.
did you install it yourself or did you use a package?
which filesystem is Pd installed on?
It was neither mentioned in the tutorial, nor in the doc that comes with
it, nor anywhere else (where I searched). Are there any environment
variables for these paths? Could you point out a URL to me that covers
these basics? I would be grateful!
look at the doc/1.manual/
look at http://puredata.info/
ask on this list :-)
