Hi Jonathan,
that's a great walkthrough!
I will update flext to conform to current mingw versions in the next
couple of days. This should remove the necessity to change flext
source code.
thanks and all the best,
Thomas

Hi List,
Here's a walkthrough I've written for João Pais to build the
Leapmotion external on a Windows machine:
http://www.jonathanwilkes.net/?p=201
Unfortunately it looks like that particular external relies on a SDK
from the vendor that requires the user to join a mailinglist and
(probably) agree to some terms, which I'm not willing to do. If
anyone has a Leapmotion device and wants to tell me what steps to
add to my walkthrough I'll be happy to update it (as well as making
suggestions if you can't get the external to compile).
After reading about Apple's signing policy for apps, I added a few
politically-motivated "digressions" that briefly touch on the
problems of habitually using general-purpose computers with software
that doesn't adhere to the four freedoms[1] of the GNU GPL[2].

[2] 3-Clause BSD and other licenses used by some of the code/
externals in Pd-extended also guarantee those same four freedoms for
the user of the software. The difference is essentially that these
other licenses don't make it a legal requirement for the user to
follow the "golden rule" if they decide to redistribute the
software. (Licenses like the GPL which do make this requirement are
also referred to as "copyleft" licenses.)
