Glad it helps, I agree things might be still a bit confusing as the new system can be approached and used in many different way which is also what we wanted to answer to various needs of artists and musicians. Everything will make more sense once we have most of it documented, which is going well, never had so much documentation in p:d ;) http://devel.goto10.org/puredyne/wiki/UserDoc We've also started to integrate our workshops courses inside the main doc so there is some form of continuity and it makes our teaching resources available to everyone else as well. Of course, just like for everything else, comment and suggestions are always welcome and the wiki is open to anyone who wants to contribute! a. > > marc > www.furtherfield.org >> Heather Corcoran said : >> >>> Hopefully we should have an easier method closer to the last one for >>> our next milestone... >>> >> >> Absolutely. >> The current pure:dyne misses an easy system for providing a similar dock >> and nest feature so you can have a quick install option without touching >> to anything else.
