This is the README file for Pd, a free real-time computer music software
package resembling Max. You can get Pd for Linux, Windows, Mac OSX, or IRIX
from http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html or ftp://felix.ucsd.edu.
Installation instructions are in the HTML DOCUMENTATION at:
http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Pd_documentation/index.htm
If you download and unpack Pd, you will also find the html documentation
locally in the file, .../pd-whatever/doc/1.manual/index.htm. To unpack Pd:
LINUX (or freeBSD). Download Pd, which will be a ".tar.gz" file; to unpack it,
type "zcat [name].tar.gz | tar xf -" to a shell. This creates a directory with
a name like "pd-0.35". There are also RPMs available.
Microsoft Windows. Pd is distributed as a "zip" file. Unzip this,
creating a directory such as \pd.
IRIX. Download Pd, which will be a "tar.Z" file. You can unpack this by
typing "zcat [name].tar.Z | tar xf -" to a shell.
Macintosh. The web browser will automatically unpack the distributions
into a folder such as "pd-0.35" on your desktop.
If you have qustions about Pd, or if you wish to be notified of releases,
check the Pd mailing list: http://iem.mhsg.ac.at/mailinglists/pd-list/
Many extensions to Pd are available, notably for handling video and 3D
graphics; see the html documentation for pointers.
