Hey; It's been many releases without an announce here! We have some cool stuff in this update. We have a new gaussian oscillator and gaussian envelopes; Some filter tools that people really liked (conversion from biquad coefficients to poles and zeros, a z-plane plot GUI); and my favorite: [pimpmul~], a phase multiplier/divider that also sends impulses (game changer for me). Of course there's more. My Live Electronics Tutorial had also some important revisions and new additions to reflect the new objects and there's also a pretty cool example that shows how moving average filters work. Details and downloads are here: https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta43

But get it also directly from Pd itself.

Total number of objects is now 431, total number of examples in the tutorial is now 440!

I need to thank my buddy Matt Barber again with his great help teaching me about the math behind the gaussian function

Cheers

so externals that work with tcl/tk won't work, right? kinda like it's the case with purr data?

ok, that was actually easy so this?

I'm actually curious now about this project, I haven't heard about it yet and would like to know what it offers. But sorry about me asking this, cause I see you have different help files, but they are much more minimal and lack information we have in Pd vanilla. Is this still going on? Am I missing something?

cheers

@porres Same, no response yet.

I'm suspecting there's something wrong and funny here!!!

@Nicolas-Danet said:

Build Spaghettis!

c'mon, no download anywhere? no release? No step by step instructions on how to build?

Notice that since i'm currently working on a new version with JUCE the current version can be considered absolutely WIP.

what's 'WIP'?

@oid said:

To sign up for working on it you fill out the form at https://www.flossmanuals.org/get-involved-0, I applied for access on Saturday but have yet to hear back.

I applied on monday, nothing yet here, what about there?

@Nicolas-Danet said:

But as it is just for my fork, that's not compatible anymore with Pd.

so how can I see what you did?

Note that it was a very painfull experience to "clean" the Puckette patches.

I don't know what you did and when, but recently I also "cleaned" them up and the result is already there in the latest version. I guess my OCD makes me a good candidate for this kind of work... it took me a week, but it wasn't painful

cheers

Anyone knows who 'mickfuzz' is? => https://en.flossmanuals.net/pure-data/_info/

just emailed him

and why do we have an archived version of the manua that is just the same here => http://archive.flossmanuals.net/pure-data/ ?

And why is the manual in different languages different? https://fr.flossmanuals.net/puredata/introduction/

Is it cause we just have total chaos, mess, and independent unofficial takes on what a Pd manual is and should be? and depending on what language you speak you get a different idea and information?

@Nicolas-Danet said:

Renovate the help / tutorials patches (it took me three monthes for Spaghettis).

where's this by the way?

@Nicolas-Danet said:

The FLOSS manual was a great community documentation, and it should be updated, but that task is out of scope. Let people maintains their work, maintain yours first.

Prize question: do we still have FLOSS maintainers out there? If so? Where are they? One way or another, how to update it, if we're doing it? I'm still unaware. I did contribute a bit to the project back in the day, in 2009. My name is there, I worked with Derek, who's now off the ship. I wanna know what it takes and what to do about it

Anyway, I see what you mean, and it makes sense, for reasonable people. I guess I'm not I do byte on more than I can chew and I already have a lot on my plate. Call me crazy, but I've been managing some insane things well and have achieved them, and I'm now considering this ludicrous undertake to overhaul Pd's documentation, all at one shot. Including the Floss Manual. Let's see...
