Me, when I shout a thte computer, it's more likely to be "where the *&$^%&

will put files on my disk". But I know my own tastes aren't shared by all
users...
While we are shouting, it seems people (including you) are annoyed about
"~/pd-externals" all up in their home directory. I wonder if it would
make sense to deprecate that in favour of standard config paths on all
platforms?
Blender does this well already and follows existing desktop standards. I
think it would be a good model to copy:
Linux = $HOME/.config/blender/2.77/
Mac OSX = /Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/Blender/2.77/
MS-Windows = C:\Documents and Settings\$USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Blender
Foundation\Blender\2.77\

For Pd you probably wouldn't need the version number thing. Or maybe you
would?
Once again I am sorry that this is an email and not a pull-request!
Cheers,
Chris.
