Hey guys, Are there any plans to get toxy/tot included in pd-extended? I find it very useful.Cheers,Ed Ninja Jamm - a revolutionary new music remix app from Ninja Tune and Seeper, for iPhone and iPad http://www.ninjajamm.com/

The pd-l2ork help patches with standard format indeed look much better than the 'free-style' pd-extended patches. That is why I use these as a base. But I do not copy them directly for several reasons: - the lack of curly lines in pd-extended make pd-l2ork formatted patches a little less clean than possible, - not all patches are correct, usually because the original had the problem, - the pd META information is incorrect (probably copied from an pd-core object), - to learn as much as possible of these objects, I try then to see if they work and how. This can lead to changes to the patch. Of course a mass copy would be a fast way to improve cyclone help, but with the long term goal in mind, I think this slow method could result in better help files. Later I will see how they look in pd-vanilla and pd-l2ork and make adjustments. @Jonathan: > But then Pd Vanilla aficionados might complain that to use cyclone they > would be forced to also install the pddp library for [pddplink] and > [helplink], because those objects do not ship with Pd Vanilla. > Otherwise they would end up with a lot of broken objects in those > help patches. > There seems to a 'rule' to make help-patches only dependent on vanilla objects, and this makes sense.

For Windows and OSX, there is no ready made solution yet. But other software packages have a cross-platform package distribution system; the examples I know are perl (ActiveState) and cygwin. But is probably not trival to build or adapt something for Pd. > Also, I believe Hans emailed awhile back asking if I'd do the work > of removing the PDDP template boilerplate from the tutorial revisions > I did.

Making help-patches as much as possible is also one of the modifications I make to the pd-l2ork help-patches. So far I ignored the pddp code. But removing the line with "pddp/pddplink" seems to work and this can be scripted. But for pd environments that always have the complete set, it is a great feature to have links.
