[PD] Upgrading from Pd-extended to 47-0-64bits OSX

you just need it in the path

now it depends on which cyclone you downloaded from "deken"

v0-extended is actually "0.1.alpha-56" and it does contain a "hidden" (more
like "misplaced") cyclone library in the "maxmode" folder. This library
loads 12 non alphanumeric objects that you don't find as single binaries
along with every other cyclone object. So you can use that in both ways, as
a library or a set of compiled externals.

If you are trying to bring all extended libraries into Pd you may have
chosen this one. But I advise not to use this one as it's arguably the
worst cyclone distribution out there. For the most part, Extended did
provide "0.1.alpha55", the alpha56 came in the last Pd Extended (0.43) but
it breaks many spectral processing patches because of a bug in
cartopol~/poltocar~

You're much better off with the other option you find in deken, which is
cyclone "0.2beta", it's an update in respect to the other version and fixes
that and other issues. But for this release, the "cyclone library" along
with other libraries that used to come in cyclone (maxmode, sickle, hammer)
were discarded. It now carries a new library called "nettles" that loads
the 12 non alphanumeric objects that you don't find as single binaries.

Me, Derek and Matt have been working on an update for cyclone (version
0.3). I thought it was best to revert back and restore the cyclone library
instead of a newly named library. It only contains the so called 12 non
alphanumeric objects as well but we might use it for other features. This
oughta keep it backwards compatible to the legacy cyclone ("0.1.alpha-56"
and earlier). Our work is still highly experimental, in a "pre alpha"
phase, but I hope we can move on to an alpha phase next month. You wont
find it in deken, but you may find some pre alpha releases here
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases - more info about the project
is found in that github repo.

here's a print of my install of cyclone 0.3, I just put the path into Pd's
path and the "cyclone library" in the startup

cheers
