Re: [PD] See "-d" flag's output on windows console

[Miller Puckette]

I'm not sure, but I think you can say "pd.com" instead of "pd.exe" to
get the output on the terminal window.  Also, you can then use "-stderr" to
reroute Pd console printout there.

[PD] See "-d" flag's output on windows console

[Henri Augusto Bisognini]

Hi

I'm trying to use the windows console to get PD's debug output when using the 
"-d" flag. The only way i've managed to do that is by using

pd.exe -d 3 1>log.txt 2>&1

But this writes the output to a file. Is there any way to see this output on 
the console itself?

(like when running $ pd -d 3 on linux)

Cheers
Henri.

Re: [PD] trouble enabling Jack on Ubuntu compile

[Dan Wilcox]

As a followup: 
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/INSTALL.txt#L165 


All other steps are very common for the autotools/make paradigm which is 
explained, more or less, step by step for beginners in the INSTALL.txt.

However, I do recognize the fact that most people don't "read the manual" and 
just ./configure && make. This is great and I'm glad the whole autotools work 
is making things easier and more people are building Pd themselves. I can see 
the need for at least some sort of prompt to better suggest what the problem 
would be.

Following Antoine's suggestion, we'll add warning print via 
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/508 
:

checking for jack_set_xrun_callback in -ljack... no
checking for jack_set_error_function in -ljack... no
configure: WARNING: JACK development files not found... skipping (See 
INSTALL.txt)

There is a similar pain point when missing the ALSA dev libraries, so we might 
want to rework the configure script to fail with an error message on Linux 
unless --disable-alsa is used. Maybe something like:

checking for snd_pcm_info in -lasound... no
configure: ERROR: ALSA development files not found... stopping (See INSTALL.txt)
