I ended up using something similar to this in a subpatch. I'm
using it with several spigots to do some control routing. How I
came accross the [hdl] object was while I was looking through the
iemabs directory looking for the [hradio] help patch because PD
decided to not be able to find them after I upgraded to devel
0.38. It's strange, because /usr/lib/pd/iemabs is in my path, and
I can load the abstractions by creating an object, but
right-clicking on an object and selecting "help" spits an error
that it can't find the patch. Is there a way to tell it where the
help directory is, and have it access subdirectories of that, as
well?
thanks,
spencer
