I recently did a push to fix key bugs to get the Pd-extended 0.43  
nightly builds in a useable state.  Also, there is a new .zip download  
for Windows, so it should be really easy to try nightly builds on  
Windows.  Just download the .zip, unzip, and double-click pd.exe in  
the bin folder.

new features:

- enable/disable Autopatch mode from Edit menu or Ctrl/Cmd-Alt-A

- fixed perf mode to not crash

- enable/disable Perf Mode from Edit menu or Ctrl/Cmd-Alt-P
   (perf = performance, it basically makes it harder to mistakenly
   close windows, like during a performance)

- inlet/outlet highlighting

- Magic Glass cord inspector

- 5 log levels that applies to the complete log history (try changing
   the log level, you'll see that it shows/hides content dynamically,
   without forgetting old log messages)

- Ctrl/Cmd click on log lines in the Pd window to see which object
   printed that line (or select line and hit Enter/Return)

- 'log' library for different levels of logging

- backgrounded, high speed logging in the Pd window (you can have
   thousands of messages a second going to the Pd window, and still
   work on your patch).

- updated French translation from Alexandre Castonguay

- Alt menu shortcuts, i.e. Alt-F for File menu

- basic config works on all platforms (i.e. no custom setup needed,
   libdir, vanilla/list, vanilla, etc. are loaded automatically)

Don't forgot to try some of the awesome GUI plugins:
