Having gone for a full 12 hours without feedback (and having slept on it), I checked in the below-mentioned changes to devel_0_36. It touches g_editor, s_main, s_path, and m_pd.h. Testing and feedback welcomed.

I won't be able to test it until next tuesday or thursday.

(I have mixed feelings with changes to m_pd.h in general, though, because that's a "system header")

mhm, do we really need this in m_pd.h ? Having it there means that externals should be able to add a new helppath, and it will become part of the pd external interface. I think it does not need to be. If you need the declarations in different files within pd Either

1) Put it in m_imp.h 2) Put a declaration on top of the file where you use the function.

Sorry about my ignorance, but isn't the help path relative to the pd installation path ? Isn't the installation path the path that should be changeable during runtime (together with the default externals path "extra" and the bin directory) ?

I might be wrong, have to check before complaining actually ...
