How to develop tc.preset

Clone this repository in a folder that is not part of your Max Search path
Do your stuff
Run ./build.sh. The script will:
- create ./dist/Max 8/tc.preset and ./dist/Max 9/tc.preset
- copy the package files in these two folders depending on their prefix (starting with max8. or max9. - that prefix being removed during the copy process). Files with no prefix are copied in both folders
- once the copy is done the script will ask if you want to copy these two folders into the default working directory (~/Documents/Max <8|9>/Packages). Press 'y' to confirm or 'n' to cancel.

Alternatively, instead of relying on this script you can manually remove the files with the prefix you don't want, and remove the prefix from the files you want to work on.
