</div>As a workaround for now you could modify the Lua search path manually<br>
using something like:<br>
<br>
package.path = "/my/pdlua/files/?.lua;" .. package.path</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Cool, I will check it out... </div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
<br>
<br>
before any requires. This adds the pattern "/my/pdlua/files/?.lua" to<br>
the path require() searches for modules. Lua doesn't know about<br>
directories, so you cannot us something like "pwd" instead here, of<br>
course.<br>
<br>
Do you think it would make sense to push the directory of a *.pd_lua<br>
file to the front of package.path automatically? I guess I think it<br>
would.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, I think that something like this would be taken care of by the "environment", as this would force any and all code used in PD to be specific to PD, having to add code that is only used in PDLua. Also considering that PD allows you to load something from the same directory, then PDLua I would think should too. How is Vessel handling 'require'? </div>
