[PD] Installing GridFlow on MacOSX

[jack at rybn.org]

My precedent mail was wrong. [#out window] works fine with macosx.

Here what i do (I think this is not the best method because things like
camera control don't work. But a lot of exemples work fine. Perhaps
Mathieu can help to improve operation) :

Put a // like this :

//#include <execinfo.h>

void blargh () {
//  void *array[25];
//  int nSize = backtrace(array, 25);
//  char **symbols = backtrace_symbols(array, nSize);
//  for (int i=0; i<nSize; i++) fprintf(stderr,"%d:%s\n",i,symbols[i]);
//  free(symbols);
}
in main.c

Put a // before all lines that contain 'gfpost' in /format/quartz.m and in
/format/quicktimeapple.c

Copy your gridflow folder in /Pd-extended/Contents/Resources/extra/

In the Terminal : enter 'cd ' and drag your gridflow folder in the
Terminal window, then push 'enter'

Enter './configure' and after 'make'
At the end you should have a 'gridflow.bundle' file and a
'gridflow.pd_darwin' file in your gridflow folder.

Start PD. Create a new document. Create the object [import gridflow].

It should work.

Hope it will help you.
