hey, <br><br>thanks hc. it makes sense what you say:<br>it must be a slash related problem, since every library im trying to load with pd, it cannot access the binaries with the .pd_darwin ending.. and it prints e.g. "tried /zexy.pd_darwin and failed" or "tried /rradical/radical.pd_darwin and failed." .. what is a leading slash and what can i do about it ?

<br>I think you have a leading slash, i.e. "/xsample". It should just read<br>"xsample".<br><br>.hc<br><br>On Feb 5, 2006, at 7:23 PM, alexandre r. decoupigny wrote:<br><br>> hey,<br>><br>> i just tried to load the zexy library by typing it into
