Re: Help compiling pureVST

So I guess the tcl files are in /usr/local/puredata/tcl/ ?  In this 
case, you could just make a symbolic link to
your home directory:

ln -s /usr/local/puredata ~/pd

(this will clutter your home directory; I need to make 
/usr/local/puredata be one of the places pureVST
searches by default.  I also just learned that on Debian pd seems to 
live in /usr/lib/puredata and not
/usr/lib/pd as I had assumed.

Alternatively, you could just go change "/usr/lib/pd" to 
/usr/local/puredata in the pureVST source and
remake - but I imagine it's sompler for now to just make the symbolic link.

cheers
