[PD] flext install (for another amateur)

[Thomas Grill]

Hi Chris,
first of all, do you use the gcc coming with xcode or from some other  
source (fink, macports)?
It seems that your platform SDK is somewhat strange, judging from the  
autoconfig build as it doesn't contain BlockMoveData and BlockZero.
As for the buildsys build, it seems that your pd distribution (pd- 
extended?) doesn't contain the g_canvas.h file, which is a header file  
"private" to pd, but necessary for flext to work. Some pd distros do  
contain it, while others don't.
Btw., there's a mailing list specialized to flext matters.
all the best, Thomas
