Summary: Path editor cannot edit bad paths

Initial Comment:
Running Pd-Extended 0.42.5 rc1 on Mac OSX 10.6.3

I moved some local lib folders and tried to update them in the Path editor. Selecting one of these paths and hitting Edit... results in a TK error dialog with the following message: Error: Bad directory "/Users/path/to/old/folder...". I cannot edit the path within PD, which is annoying.

Message:
I added PathEditor.patch for pd-tk which adds a check on existing paths
before editing them. If they don't exist, an error message is printed to
::pdwindow::error and the dialog path is set to the home dir.
