BUILD -- msd, msd2D, msd3D

To build any of the predefined msd objects you need flext from Thomas Grill. You must compile and install flext following the instructions, and then compile and install msd.

For example to build the msd2D object in pd with gcc on Linux, you must compile and install flext first, and then do

cd EXTERNALSDIR/nusmuk/msd2D
sudo bash ../../grill/flext/build.sh pd gcc 
sudo bash ../../grill/flext/build.sh pd gcc install

It will compile and install the msd external in the directory you previously defined in flext.

------------------
BUILD -- msdND

msd can virtually be build for any number of dimension. To do that you must edit the main.cpp and package.txt files in the msdND subfolder. Follow the instructions of the build.txt file also in the msdND folder.

--------------------------
USE -- msd, msd2D, msd3D

To start open the 01_msdtest.pd file under pd or look at the help-msd.pd patch.
