[PD] Re: PD-list Digest, Vol 8, Issue 108

Generally, that's because PDP can't find a library.  Could you launch  
/Applications/Utilities/Console.app, there you will be able to see the  
error output.  Send it me here.

Or you can run it from the command line to see the error messages.   
Like this:

/Applications/Pd0.38.4-extended-RC3.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd  
-stderr

Then the error messages will show up in your terminal window.
