[PD] flext install (for another amateur)

Hi Thomas,

Thanks a lot for your help.

Seeing as I have not actively installed gcc from any other source I suppose
it must be the one from the xcode/developer sdk. Btw, my sdk is
'MacOSX10.6.sdk' - the one appropriate for osx 10.6.8, afaik!

My Pd (extended 0.43.4) installation does actually contain the g_canvas.h
file in /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/include/pdextended

I have the config-mac-gcc...etc file pointing PDPATH to
/Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources ...need I point a
different variable to ....Resources/include/pdextended in order to see the
header files?

Cheers,
