This is the README file for Pd, a free real-time computer music software
|
||
|
|
package resembling Max. You can get Pd for Linux, Windows, Mac OSX, or IRIX
|
||
|
|
from http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html or ftp://felix.ucsd.edu.
|
||
|
|
Installation instructions are in the HTML DOCUMENTATION at:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Pd_documentation/index.htm
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you download and unpack Pd, you will also find the html documentation
|
||
|
|
locally in the file, .../pd-whatever/doc/1.manual/index.htm. To unpack Pd:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
LINUX (or freeBSD). Download Pd, which will be a ".tar.gz" file; to unpack it,
|
||
|
|
type "zcat [name].tar.gz | tar xf -" to a shell. This creates a directory with
|
||
|
|
a name like "pd-0.35". There are also RPMs available.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Microsoft Windows. Pd is distributed as a "zip" file. Unzip this,
|
||
|
|
creating a directory such as \pd.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
IRIX. Download Pd, which will be a "tar.Z" file. You can unpack this by
|
||
|
|
typing "zcat [name].tar.Z | tar xf -" to a shell.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Macintosh. The web browser will automatically unpack the distributions
|
||
|
|
into a folder such as "pd-0.35" on your desktop.
|
||
|
