Hey Miller and OSXers,

I'm trying to figure out how to distribute pixelTANGO as a single .app that
needs only to be dragged to be installed.

Is there a way I can put the plist file inside the pd.app and have it called
from there? Then I can benifit from a relative location for refering to
externals and such? Right now I have to put absolute pathnames in the plist and
that makes the installation an anoyance.

So the idea is that I could use something like ./abstractions as a path relative
to the current dir (inside the pd.app) to the abstractions?

Maybe a solution to the problem of multiple concurrent configs of PD could be
simply a flag to tell PD what plist to load, this would be relative to where the
pd binary is? (This was suggested for .pdrc's a while back)

I tried using pd.command files, but they don't seem to be run from the directory
in which the reside. :( what a pain.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

B.
