here's the console text

"libdir loader 1.9

Gem is a pickle. We're currently building 64-binaries for OSX, but for Gem to work it needs to be built as a 32-bit binaries. Matt Barber tried building everything as 32-bit to accommodate Gem but ran into linker errors.

Gem for windows waiting in the wings yes?

The current alpha includes a working version of Gem for Windows. But the current alpha doesn't automatically load libraries at startup-- I'll have an installer available for the next alpha to do that.

In the meantime you can do [import Gem] to load it.

@jancsika HI, thanks a lot. I'd totally settle for a 32 bit build of purr data on OS X. Anyway I'm not expecting anything since this is free. Much appreciated!

really really good work, tanks a lot, happy to have this on my screen
I have 2 questions :

• can we said to pd to load personnals abstractions, in a specific location, when he run ?
• for the view menu : ctl+= works fine, but ctl+- did not work surprisingly

shortcut suggestion : ctl+mouseWheel would be reallyyyyy great

ubuntu 14.4 64 bits
(ctl+- works fine on firefox)
thanks again.

Do you mean you want the "Startup Path" dialog?

• for the view menu : ctl+= works fine, but ctl+- did not work surprisingly

Anything out of the ordinary on your computer? Is it the "-" key next to the number "0"? Mine seems to work...

Ah yeah, I forgot that one. I added it to the tracker.

I was having this trouble on Ubuntu with the latest version of Vanilla (which also features zooming). Eventually I got it to work with ctrl + shift + -. Does this apply here?

@jancsika

yes, that is the name thx.

@LiamG @jancsika

my "-" key is shared with the "6" nb... nothing out of ordinary.
same behavior with ctrl + shift + -
maybe it is my computer if it works on yours. doesnt matter.

@LiamG (out of purpose)

Ubuntu with the latest version of Vanilla

do you have a tuto for that ?
does this linux .deb Pd version 0.47-1 compiled for ARMv7/linux (Raspberry Pi version 2; UDOO) (4 Megabytes) present on miller's website will work on Ubuntu 14.04 ?

thx.

@mx Please click ctrl+- on the following link and tell me what is output:

@jancsika
it is impossible to copy/paste

which 54
key 54
shift & altKey : false
ctlKey : true
metaKey : false

@mx Try this one:

The instructions in the readme file are inadequate, but it will definitely compile and install on 14.04. Make sure that you have the build essentials package installed, and try using checkinstall instead of install. Search old threads on the list for advice if it doesn't work, and don't give up!

@mx Two things:

1. Could you do one more test? Go to
   https://cdn.rawgit.com/w3c/uievents/gh-pages/tools/key-event-viewer.html
   And tell me what UI Events get reported for the "keypress" of the minus key. I'm mainly interested in the "code"
2. Can you post a picture of your keyboard somewhere?

Thanks

Edit: originally posted the wrong link

@jancsika
Reassure me, you made a mistake in the link, no ?

Sorry, I did. It's fixed now.

@jancsika , with pleasure

@mx Thanks. I sent it upstream to see whether this is a bug in the nw.js GUI toolkit.
