things aswell!<br>
I should know better but I am not using the command line so much in<br>
the win7 machine i am on, should i write "LANG=pt<br>
c:/program/pd/pd-extended" The folder pd is installed at is<br>
program/pd but seems i have some problems with the syntax...<br>
should it be backslashes?<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
