[PD] Basic question about Mac Os X

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Any regular Mac user will look in the Pd->Prefernces for the  
preferences, so you'll have people complaining about that.  I knew it  
always drove me nuts, first I'd go to the normal prefs location, then  
remember, "oh yeah, it's in the media menu".

You can't please all the people all the time...

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into  
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess  
himself of it.            - Thomas Jefferson
