[hid] works fine in pd-extended on my older OS X laptop.(not sure which OS X but pre-10 at least) I looked into the libraries there and there is a separate hid library in pd-extended.
Also able to create hid object on newest OS X with pd-extended 0.43.4 but I only got as far as testing the print devices to make sure it was returning array of device map, which it did fine.
Would it just be a matter of porting over this pd-extended library to Pd-l2ork?

Can't create [hid] object.
I do have all the libraries packaged with 2.2.3 all loaded.
. Is there another library to load to get this? Or is there an alternate way now to connect usb controllers?
Thanks
