[PD] slightly obvious PiDipd install issues under OSX

[Michael Podolak]

Hello-	

Considering I am slightly new to OSX, I was trying to install Pidip 
through Fink Commander during the past few days and ran into a bit of a 
problem...

Using Han's installer package I managed to put my Pd folder in my home 
directory where I bring the application forth through Terminal with the 
command line "~/pd/bin/pd"  However, it seems like Pidip wants Pd to be 
in

---------" /usr/local/lib/pd/   ,so that I can put PidipD in      
/usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx  "

Where is the /usr/local/lib directory and how do I move Pd to if it is 
hidden?

I was also instructed to perform the following:

---------"Modify your .pdrc file " by adding the lines:
-path /usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx/abstractions
-path 
/usr/local/lib/pd/extra:/usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx/abstractions
-lib /usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx/pdp
Remember .pdrc is a hidden file and should be located in your /home/ 
folder if it is not there make one yourself.

I tried typing in these lines in Terminal and X11 to no avail... Should 
this be done elsewhere in a different fashion? what exactly does this 
mean?

Thank you for the help,
Podolakmichael
