Yea, but i cannot help Jonathan with that. What "makes it make sense"
however, is that it starts up automatically. One can also modify his/her pd
icon so that it starts up with the patch.

Honestly, you are to first to tell me this, but i'm not so old and haven't
really been around the world so much.

Sir I will be Sir. Let me add that i'd reserve the name 'plugin' for things
that are pluggable into an API and that is something me and Hans may have a
