Hi, I should have remembered that I had to do this before! Thanks
everything is fixed and works great again.
And, I finally got around to trying the PMPD examples and they are
amazing, I'm so excited to develop some patches with these. I promise to
share some with the list, and also do my best to document a little what
I do to help other people learning. I know it's so hard starting out, I
gave up 3 times with PD before I started to figure it out enough to
enjoy it!
