this is because pd-vanilla has very few externals (an "external" is an object that comes from a file other than the Pd-binary itself). Pd-extended attempted to remove all internal objects from Pd and put them into a "vanilla" library. that's why you see a mtof~.dll > > I also went to the top of my 0.47-1 install tree and looked for any file > called mtof~ and FOUND NOTHING. see above. > So maybe you can tell me how, when I instantiate [mtof~], where exactly it is > coming from? Is it an internal? Is it an external? well, christof already gave you the quick and dirty way: open the help-patch of the object and see if it is a Pd-vanilla help patch. a more correct (though cumbersome) way would be to start Pd-vanilla without any libraries and paths loaded > pd -noprefs -nostdpath -verbose create the object and see whether it instantiates. if it does, check the Pd-console to make sure that it was not loaded from some local file. if it instantiates and is not from a local file, then it is an internal. fgasdrm IOhannes
