[PD] problem loading <~ cyclone objects on osx

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I am pretty sure that <~, >~, and ==~ are not in cyclone, but in zexy  
in the form of abstractions/Pd objects.  In RC5 you can load them by  
typing [zexy/<~], [zexy/>~], or [zexy/==~].  Or you could can add the  
zexy folder to the path, something like this:

/Users/steve/Desktop/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC5.app/Contents/Resources/ 
extra/zexy

It the upcoming RC6, zexy is a libdir, so you'll be able to load it by  
adding "zexy" to the Startup preferences.
