No, you just need to put it into a search path of Pd. If your goal is to test whether the most recent change works (creation of the user specific folder), then you obviously can't use that, you may put it into the application specific folder (don't know the exact path for Mac, something like /Applications/Pd.app/[...]/extra). Download this file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pure-data/deken/master/deken-plugin.tcl Save it to extra, make sure it has the name deken-plugin.tcl. That's it. It will override the one included in Pd and it will announce that in the Pd console with a message like: --- deken-plugin.tcl (Pd externals search) in /home/roman/.local/lib/pd/extra loaded. Platform detected: Linux-x86_64-64bit --- If you such a message, then you are ready to test the new feature. Search something, click something and it should ask you: "Install to /Users/alexandre/Library/Pd?" If you click 'yes', this directory is created. As far as I know, the 'remember the last path' feature hasn't been implemented yet. Roman
