libdir
------


This package provides support for the libdir format of libraries that is used
in Pd-extended.  It should work with any version of Pd 0.40 or newer.

To install, copy the files for your platform into your "extra" folder and the
help patches to the "doc/5.reference" folder.  You will need to load the
libdir.dll/libdir.pd_linux/libdir.pd_darwin as a library before trying to load
any libdirs.  The libdirs have to be in the global classpath in order to be
found.

You can add a library two ways:
 - add this text to one of the fields in the "Startup" prefs:  libdir
 - load it on the command line with this:  -lib libdir

For more info on the structure of libdirs, see this webpage:

http://puredata.org/docs/developer/Libdir

If you want to compile these yourself, it will be much easier to compile it
out of the pure-data CVS.  Otherwise, just drop these into any working
externals build system and they should compile, they are very simple C files.

This package provides support for the loading objectclasses with special characters
It should work with any version of Pd 0.40 or newer.

To install, copy the files for your platform into your "extra" folder and the
help patches to the "doc/5.reference" folder.  You will need to load the
hexloader.dll/hexloader.pd_linux/hexloader.pd_darwin as a library before trying to load
any objects with special characters

You can add a library in several ways:
 - add this text to one of the fields in the "Startup" prefs:  hexloader
 - load it on the command line with this:  -lib hexloader
 - create an object [declare -lib hexloader] in your main patch
 - create an object [hexloader]

If you want to compile these yourself, changedir into ./hexloader and run "make"
