i was going to suggest an alias, but alas. how about a wrapper script? ~~~ $ cat /usr/local/bin/pd #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/pd -alsa "$@" $ ~~~ there's a related PR on github (it doesn't solve your problem, but also tries to avoid spilling some cmdline options into the Pd-settings) https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/153 vxyrd IOhannes
