Hi hans & list,
I've seen that the installation of the X11 user package is necessary to
run GEM under osx with the last 0.40-3 RC2 pd extended.
I was wondering if it's possible to explicite that on the installers
pages (http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html and in the near future :
http://puredata.info/downloads).
As pd-extended is very useful for beginners, I think it can be difficult
for some of them to understand the printed error in the pd console.
Maybe a line as:
To run GEM and other graphical applications, you need to install X11 first.
would be a clear and simple indication.
A link as this one
http://www.simplehelp.net/2006/10/22/how-to-install-x11-in-os-x/
could also be helpy.
Greetings,
Nicolas
