it is in any way recommended to use pd-extended and a up-to-date netpd archive from download.
recommended for beginners. no configuration/dependencies necessary. if you are new to pd, your are right here. choose the package for your operating system:
pd-netpd-win32.zip (MS Windows)
zip-archive containing pd for windows, all necessary libraries and netpd.
install instructions are inside the package.
