[flext] building an external with XCode

[Arshia Cont]

Hello Bodsiin,

To build flext and flext-based externals, you either do it via  
terminal following the (excellent) documentation in build.txt stuff.  
Or you either launch the XCode project, modify search paths for Pd  
sources and Max SDKs (check 'info' on the targets) and for ALL targets  
and build flext. For external build using XCode, there is a Xcode- 
template in the 'examples' folder that you could try out.

However, not being an Xcode expert, I noticed that my XCode externals  
are not linked the same manner as in the terminal mode and they are  
extensively bigger in size! I guess one should play around with  
compilation and link options in Xcode... .

If anyone has a clean XCode template it would be great to share... .
