<p>This will only work with a pre-loaded abstraction or subpatch. I'm talking about opening a new file that isn't already loaded.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>You can open files like this:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>[; pd open file.pd my/directory(</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>but it will only work with absolute, not relative directory paths.<br>

<p>The [link] object is great for linking between help files, but I don't know how many people use it now that Extended has gone. By way of a survey, how many people have this external installed already? Seems like it will just be a nuisance if people have
to download it just to read a help patch, but on the other hand it's a shame to give up on it since it's such a useful tool.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Assuming that it's not widely used any more, are there any other ways of opening a relative path from within PD?<br>
