general::
-the zexy external is a collection of externals for miller.s.puckette's realtime-computermusic-environment called "puredata" (or abbreviated "pd")
-this zexy external will be of no use, if you don't have a running version of pd on your system.

check out for http://pd.iem.at to learn more about pd and how to get it

installation::
+==============================================================================
+
linux :
-change to directory src
-run:
- "autoconf"
- "./configure"
- "make"
- "make install"
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+#1> cd src/
+#2> autoconf
+#3> ./configure
+#4> make
+#5> make install
+
this will install the zexy external into /usr/local/lib/pd/externs
(the path can be changed either via the "--prefix"-flag to "configure"
or by editing the makefile
alternatively you can try "make everything" (after ./configure)
note: if you don't want the parallel-port object [lpt]
- (e.g.: because you don't have a parallel-port) you can disable it with "--disable-lpt"

+macOS-X:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+see installation/linux
+the configure-script should work here too;
+
+if not, try "make -f makefile.darwin"
+
win32 :
-extract the zexy-0_x.zip to your pd-path (this file should be located at <mypdpath>/pd/zexy/)
-execute the "z_install.bat", this should copy all necessary files to the correct places
-to compile: w/ MSVC use makefile.nt or zexy.dsw;
-or with GCC configure your pd path, eg:
- ./configure --prefix=/c/program/pd; make; make install
-cross-compilation for windows on linux using mingw (assumes that the xcompiler is "i586-mingw32msvc-cc")
- ./configure --host=i586-mingw32msvc --with-extension=dll --includedir=/path/to/win/pd/src/ --libdir=/path/to/win/pd/bin/

irix :
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
though i have physical access to both SGI's O2s and indys,
i haven't tried to compile the zexy externals there for years.
the configure-script should work here too;
if not, try "make -f makefile.irix"
Good luck !

making pd run with the zexy external::
-make sure, that pd will be looking at this location (add "-path <mypath>/pd/externs" either to your .pdrc or each time you execute pd)
-make sure, that you somehow load the zexy external (either add "-lib zexy" (if you advised pd somehow to look at the correct place) or "-lib <myzexypath>/zexy" to your startup-script (.pdrc or whatever) or load it via the object "zexy" at runtime
