hi !
the gem installer only installs the documentation (and only correctly,
if you extracted the gem-folder to be
drive:\folders\PD\GEM :: it is a very simply script)
you have to (manually) copy the file "Gem.dll" into a path that is
searched for by pd: pe the path drive:\folders\PD\EXTRA, then you have
to load the Gem-library, either by adding "-lib Gem" to your
command-line , or by trying to create an object, called "Gem" (pd will
bail out to not being able to create an objet Gem, but never mind, it is
only important that you can read lines similar to
GEM: Mark Danks
GEM: ver: 0.84-5
GEM: compiled: Jun 23 2001
an alternative would be to just add "-lib drive:\where\is\GEM\gem" to
your command line
