This might seem annoying, but I have found it makes it much easier for people to install things: the meta file "xthsense-meta.pd", the download page title "Xth-Sense-library", the library name "Xth-Sense-lib", and the folder from the download folder "marcodsad-Xth-Sense-lib-5299660" are all different names. That means people have to know that the have to rename "marcodsad-Xth-Sense-lib-5299660" to "xthsense" in order to make it work like a lib. Instead I propose this: - create a folder in your git called "xthsense" - move all of the objects into that folder - add a README.txt telling people to drop the "xthsense" folder into the standard user folder: http://puredata.info/docs/faq/how-do-i-install-externals-and-help-files - rename the /downloads/ page to "xthsense" It can be called something other than "xthsense", it just needs to be the same name everywhere. Also, for read-me in libdirs, README.txt is the standard name, not README. .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no way to peace, peace is the way. -A.J.
