1. seemingly, the "-open" flag still won't work under "NT"; what will
work (and was discussed earlier on this list) is not using any flag for
opening at all. for examples try "pd myfile.pd" (instead of "pd -open
myfile.pd"); a more complex example would be "pd -myflag -lib mylib
myfile.pd"

2. if you remembered "vaguely" something discussed on the list, you
might find the search engine for the pd-list useful; have a look and try
" http://iem.mhsg.ac.at/mailinglists/pd-list "; note that you shouldn't
search for "-open", since this will output all the files that do NOT
contain "open"; just search "open" and "flags";me thinketh that the
problem was discussed in november
