[Gridflow-dev] gridflow finds its other self

Hi,

GridFlow finds itself incorrectly if there is a different gridflow 
installed in pd's "$PREFIX/lib/pd/extra/", which means it will add the 
wrong paths (if I understand things correctly):

----8<----
$ cd ~/code/gridflow # svn trunk is there
$ pd -stderr -verbose -lib gridflow
[snip]
tried ./gridflow.l_i386 and failed
tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/gridflow.l_i386 and failed
tried ./gridflow.pd_linux and succeeded
GridFlow 0.9.5, Copyright (c) 2001-2008 Mathieu Bouchard
GridFlow was compiled on Aug 22 2008, 16:12:59
tried /home/claude/code/gridflow/gridflow/gridflow.pd_linux and failed
tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/gridflow/gridflow.pd_linux and succeeded
----8<----

this ugly workaround:

----8<----
$ cd ~/code
$ pd -stderr -verbose -lib gridflow/gridflow
[snip]
tried ./gridflow/gridflow.l_i386 and failed
tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/gridflow/gridflow.l_i386 and failed
tried ./gridflow/gridflow.pd_linux and succeeded
GridFlow 0.9.5, Copyright (c) 2001-2008 Mathieu Bouchard
GridFlow was compiled on Aug 22 2008, 16:12:59
tried /home/claude/code/gridflow/gridflow.pd_linux and succeeded
----8<----

Naturally this is a bit inconvenient when testing current svn trunk 
while having a stable version installed for normal use.

Any thoughts on the best way to fix this?


Claude
