Oh no….

Looking at the pd screen, it says "pdp:can't load library" and "pidip:can't load library". <explicative>…

I recall seeing a Using Pd w/Gem tutorial, but can't remember where I saw it.  Checking blog to see if the link is on here.  

Okay, I know this could be wrong, but I am not finding Gem anywhere in my pd files.  If it is built-in and I'm just being dumb, well, ooops.    I am going to try something that I saw on http://gem.iem.at/download/GEM.README.  I am downloading Gem and unzipping it in pd/gem.  So I am going to go into pd right now and create a new folder called Gem.  

Now I am downloading gem-0.90.1-NTi586-bin-doc.zip and extracting the files to ___ /pd/gem.

Now I am going to GemInstall.bat and right clicking on it.  

I will edit line 3 of the install file to read set PDPATH=C:\program files\\pd and line 6 to read set PDVERSION=0.38.4

I am running the Gem_Install file.  A bunch of numbers ran up a screen that flashed onto the monitor.  I think that means it's good to go.  Let's find out.

No dice.  Still same message:

pdp:can't load library

pidip:can't load library

What am I doing wrong?
