hello all, i've been delving into Pure Data a bit, as I was once a Max/MSP user and feel its time to put that knowledge back to use.
however, i'm having a few issues with getting all of the extras that seem to be included in the pd package to load in the actual software. for example, I was trying to run a patch that used freeverb~, and when trying to load it freeverb~ could not be found. I located the freeverb~.pd file in something like /usr/lib/pd/extras/footils/foo/freeverb~.pd .. so I added that directory to Pd's search path. freeverb~ then loaded, however now I had an issue with plugin~ not existing, specifically plugin~ freeverb3 it seems to me like there's a lot of stuff in the pure:dyne distribution that isn't getting loaded by Pd, and I was wondering if there's a quick and easy way to get all of the externals and abstractions into Pd's path. I tried adding /usr/lib/pd, but that didn't seem to work quite right. maybe i'm just missing something simple, but i feel though I'm doing everything I know to do and its still not working. it makes it kind of hard to explore Pd when every time I want to look at someone's patch I have to locate some external it requires. any help would be appreciated. thanks grant
