[PD] problem loading <~ cyclone objects on osx

Thanks for the response!

I thought they were part of the cyclone library because this page seems to
say so:
http://suita.chopin.edu.pl/~czaja/miXed/externs/cyclone.html

And plus I was using >~ under Linux with only the cyclone library loaded.

However, I'll definitely give your suggestion a try.
Since my post, I have also discovered the "expr~" object, which seems to be
able to do what I want.

Thanks,
Steve
