[PD-dev] pd externals windows

[Ben Bogart - FMPM/F1999]

Can you compile the examples in 6.externs in the PD documentation?

I seem to recall having a problem using underscores in my external names, 
just using just one word, like "tilde" as your external name, and then 
rename your other functions to match, eg "tidle_setup" 

good luck.
