[PD] can't use Pd-extended externals

[Thomas Ouellet Fredericks]

At the end of this mail is an example of my .pdsettings
My pd rests at /usr/lib/pd
I use a Debian package of PD, and compile some stuff, but I pick in  your
compiled pd-extended externals often. Congratulations on the great job.

I do not understand your loading of folders as libs (like toxy, cyclone,
hid, etc..). Is this a kind of hack so that Pd searches those folders for
the external?

Once Pd goes up a version I will switch to you pd-extended and try to help.
