BTW you might confirm that the 8.3 filename for Program Files is indeed PROGRA~1 on your system... I think it usually is but you can check that from the command line. I think there's a flag in the dir command to show you the 8.3 filename...or you can use old skool COMMAND.COM and see what it lists the directory as...at least this is what I recall. No Windows machine around to check...

Hi,

I'm trying to get Pd to find the GEM help patches for its objects, but am having no luck so far. Default installation of pd-extended (version 0.40.3) keeps giving me 'sorry, couldn't find help patch for ...' messages

I've added the path C/Program Files/pd/extra/Gem to paths. Still no love.

I have noticed that the folder with GEM helpfiles appear to be in two locations; /extra and /doc/5.reference - is this normal?

All other helpfiles seem to work without a problem, just can't get Gem to behave :S

BTW, I've seen this identical problem on every windows installation I know (over half a dozen), including 1 under a virtual machine on Mac OS X.
The Mac-native version of pd-extended does not have this problem.

The problem is compounded by Pd starting a new instance when you double-click a patch under Windows. If it would open in the same intance, I'd just have a window with help patches open...

Any help in solving this would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks
