It seems that it would be quite useful to make a help template for these functions, then generate them automatically, since the objects themselves were auto-generated. It would be very nice to have these help patches already generated from the OpenGL reference, and also included a link, perhaps.<br> <br> I just committed GLdefine-help.pd as a start.
