Hi,<br>I have installed pd-extended 0.38.4 on ubuntu feisty. When I tried to open it, it asked for several libraries. So I made several symbolic links to libraries it has asked for, and they appear to be working OK.<br><br>But libvos3gcc3.so has got me stumped.<br><br>When I try to open pd I get the following error message:<br><br>/usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui: error while loading shared libraries: libvos3gcc3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory<br><br><br><br><br>I have libvos3gcc3.so in /usr/lib/openoffice/program. <br>I have tried:<br><br>a/ making a symbolic link from /usr/local/lib/pd/bin to /usr/lib/openoffice/program/libvos3gcc3.so <br><br>b/ copying libvos3gcc3.so to /usr/local/lib/pd/bin<br><br>Neither worked! *@#%$%!!<br><br> Does anyone have any advice on what I can do here?<br><br>Thankyou!<br><br><b><i>pd-list-request@iem.at</i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px;

One simple start would be <br>to include the list of objects according to function that is found in <br>core-pd. However, I think it would be better to put in in the help menu <br>rather than then right-clicking on the canvas. This would encourage <br>newbies to use the standard pd blocks to start with.<br><br>A general function-to-block
dictionary is more complicated since there <br>seems to be something like 1000 help files in the doc section...<br>One possibility could be to put a text label in each help file, for example:<br>;;;pd-extended classification;;;category: audio;function: filter, <br>subfunction: bandpass;;;<br>This is just an example. It could be done in a number of ways e.g. just <br>give keywords. The audio/control classification is of course already <br>evident from the tilde sign.This could be complemented with a short <br>"one-liner":<br>;;;description: A 2-pole bandpass filter;;;<br><br>Then this would be divided in thee tasks:<br>1. agree on the list of categories and functions<br>2. label the help files ( I guess that it would be easy for everyone to <br>do in the CVS?)<br>3. Implement sorting according to function in the browser. (If the <br>browser search the doc section a new lib would be included automatically.)<br><br>The first step can be done on this list or in the pd doc
group.<br>The second step can easily be distributed. I could spend some time with <br>it and I think I could mobilize more people at the department as well.<br>The last step depends mostly on hans so it would be great to hear your <br>opinion about it.<br>/Anders<br><br>marius schebella wrote:<br>> Three, I would like to help build such a database.<br>> marius.<br>><br>> Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote:<br>>><br>>> I sometimes forget even the names of the objects that I have written, <br>>> so I would use the dictionary for sure.
