hey,

thanks hc. it makes sense what you say:
it must be a slash related problem, since every library im trying to load
with pd, it cannot access the binaries with the .pd_darwin ending.. and it
prints e.g. "tried /zexy.pd_darwin and failed" or "tried
/rradical/radical.pd_darwin and failed." .. what is a leading slash and what
can i do about it ?
