If someone wants to write patches that work on vanilla anywhere,
then there is a point. If people are already using Pd-extended or
Debian then I honestly don't see the point, arraysize is already
there, like many other externals.<br>
<br>
For me, apt-get install pd-arraysize is far easier than trying to
remember that [expr] trick. And thankfully we can write externals,
so we can have choice. :-)<br>
