[PD] OSX, i prefer linux but...

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I can't help you with tags, but I can tell you that shortly, within a 
couple days, I will be releasing a new MacOS X installer for Pure Data 
plus lots of stuff from the SourceForge CVS.  This installer is based 
on pd 0.37, which greatly simplifies audio and midi device selection, 
especially on MacOS X.
