[PD] finding which instance executes first

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I am about to start working on the [hid] v2 stuff, and I just had a 
thought.  Is there any way to find out which instance of an object 
executes first?

My idea is to have the first instance of the [hid] object do the reading 
of event data from the OS and write it to memory.  Then every other 
instance will just output the data from memory.  But in order for this to 
work properly, the first instance to execute needs to do the 
data-getting.

Another idea is to have a boolean flag set when the first instance reads 
the data from the OS, then at the beginning of each message processing 
cycle, that flag would be reset to false.

hmm...
