iem_utils for Debian ==================== # Pd-libraries Debian (like upstream) builds the various libraries as a multi-object library. In order to use it, you have to load the library first, using one of the following methods: - add "LIBRARYNAME" to the list of startup libraries in Pd's preferences - start Pd with "-lib LIBRARYNAME" In order to make a patch automatically load a given library whenever the patch is loaded, add the following object to your patch: [declare -stdlib LIBRARYNAME] NOTE ---- make sure to replace LIBRARYNAME by an actual library name, e.g. one of: - iem_adaptfilt - iem_roomsim - iem_spec2 - iem_tab # Pd GUI plugins The pd-iemutils package includes a few GUI plugins. The pd-gui automatically loads all GUI plugins it can find in the standard paths, and there is no way to disable a specific plugin. Since not all plugins are desirable for all users under all circumstances, Debian ships the plugins in a separate (unsearched) directory, and leaves the task of enabling them to the user. To see a list of plugins run: ls /usr/*/pd-gui/plugins-available To enable a given plugin (e.g. the 'kiosk-plugin') create a symlink into your ~/pd-externals directory cd ~/pd-externals ln -s /usr/share/pd-gui/plugins-available/kiosk-plugin . To disable the plugin, simply remove the symlink. Instead of manually creating the symlinks, you can also use the 'pd-gui-plugin' cmdline tool (available in the puredata-gui package >= 0.46.7-3) After you have enabled/disabled a plugin, you need to restart Pd in order to see an effect. -- IOhannes m zmölnig (Debian/GNU) Wed, 17 Feb 2016 15:49:39 +0100
