[PD] gui object arguments

[Dan Wilcox]

In looking at g_hslider.c, I imagine something like the following in hslider_new():

// 2 args: range
else if((argc == 2) || IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 0) && IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 1)) {
	min = (double)atom_getfloatarg(0, argc, argv);
        max = (double)atom_getfloatarg(1, argc, argv);
}
// 4 args: range & size
else if((argc == 4) || IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 0) && IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 1)
				    IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 2) && IS_A_FLOAT(argv, 3)) {
	w = (int)atom_getintarg(0, argc, argv);
        h = (int)atom_getintarg(1, argc, argv);
	min = (double)atom_getfloatarg(2, argc, argv);
        max = (double)atom_getfloatarg(3, argc, argv);
}

And an equivalent for the other gui objects.
