Digging thru my backlog... in Pd-extended there
is

hcs/version
tcl/tcl_version
ggee/getdir

I agree, it would be nice to have the About Pd
page be a Pd
patch.  If you make one, I'll include it in
Pd-extended
0.43.

Ok, here's a 1st attempt.  It would look a lot
better if I used
[entry] to display the Pd version (and possibly tcl
version) but
that object is too buggy to use.

The links work assuming about.pd lives in
doc/5.reference.

Btw-
/usr/lib/pd-extended/LICENSE.txt, referred to in the
current "about pd" textfile, doesn't exist on my
machine.

I like the sparks and credits animation!  Where is
this file designed
to go in the file system? I think probably the best place
would be in
lib/pd/doc/about.pd

I made the pddplinks relative to
doc/5.reference

Here's a revision with the Pd logo.


Ok, I'm adding it to Pd-extended right now :) The only change I made was to make the Tcl version use only "." to separate the numbers, not "-"

replace the "Help->About Pd" textfile with
a pd
patch so the links could
be clickable. (Also, it would then be possible
to do
some rolling credits,
as often happens in an "About this Software"
window.)
