Hi Hans,
Two questions:
1) widgets and text appear super tiny on winxp.
But when I create a
widget in the tcl shell, say, with "grid [button .b
-text Hello]" the
font size looks fine. So what exactly is
happening in Pd to make
things
look too small in windows? (I remember this was
a problem with the
font bomb but I don't know what the solution was.)
In order to make the patches all look/work the same on all
platforms,
Tk scaling is turned off. On Windows, this can mean
small fonts, so
you have to use the scaled fonts that are speced in
pd-gui.tcl.
How do I specify them? I don't see them specified at all in
the code for the "find" dialog but the fonts look fine there.

Its done using classes and the option system. If you make the
toplevel of your search like:
toplevel .font -class DialogWindow
It'll inherit stuff like that.

2) What is the "_" command? I.e.:
button .b -text [_ "Search"]
It marks text for localization. So if, for example,
you are using Pd
in German it'll read "suchen" rather then "search".

Hey all,
At the strong urging of Sofy Yuditskaya, I finally
wrote up
a quick
interface for searching the Pd docs using a
keyword or a
regexp. Its in
the form of an 0.43 plugin, so you can just drop
it into
your
user-folder and you should get a "Search" item on
the Help
menu.
Test it out and let me know how it works for you.
