<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know this original post was from a year ago...but
this problem still exists in PD in Win XP (and likely other Windows
versions). Has anybody discovered a sensible 'fix'?</FONT></DIV>

<P>awsome, thanks for all your help everyone, i'm really impressed at how
<BR>much i can do with pd. <BR>
<P>on the flip side, i can reliably crash pd on my win2k machine here by
<BR>clicking a few times on the open message box so that i have a few
<BR>duplicate x.pd windows open, then hitting the close message box. is this a
<BR>known issue? here are my two patches: <BR>
<P>test.pd: <BR>
<P>#N canvas 453 249 452 302 10; <BR>#X msg 43 82 \; pd-x.pd menuclose; <BR>#X
msg 45 35 \; pd open x.pd c:/pd/joschi/; <BR>
<P>
<P>x.pd: <BR>
<P>#N canvas 0 0 454 304 12; <BR>#X obj 115 100 foobar; <BR>
