+Here are some programs and stuff to make using SuperCollider more
+convenient to use within PD.
+
+If you have never used SuperCollider together with PD before, here
+is a quick start:
+
+-Go to supercollider.sf.net and install supercollider. Make sure
+ you get it to work.
+
+-Replace the linux/extMain.sc file with the one in this directory.
+ Usually found in /usr/share/supercollider/linux/ or something.
+ The standard distribution of the supercollider language does this
+ crazy thing about shutting down the server. Stop that madness.
+
+-Go to the k_sc~ directory and compile up the k_sc~ external.
+ This external automates the jack routing so that you get the
+ jack output from the supercollider server into an object called
+ "sc_in~". There is also an object called "sc_from~" that sends
+ audio signals to the jack input on the supercollider server.
+
+-Go to the python directory, and copy the files in there to
+ your python site-packages directory. Usually placed here:
+ /usr/lib/python2.x/site-packages/
+
+-Go to the example directory and try to run the help-sc.pd patch.
+ Make sure you have at least PD v0.37, and the latest version
+ of the pyext external.
+
+
+If you have any questions, don't ask me directly, ask on the
+pd-list or on the supercollider list. I'm very tired about
+replying the same questions over and over again. Thanks!
+
+
+Enjoy!
