I tried this in entry_new() and entry_save(), and in both, "binbuf"  
ends being nothing useful (i.e. segfault):

     t_glist *glist = (t_glist *) canvas_getcurrent();
     t_canvas *canvas = (t_canvas*) glist_getcanvas(glist);
     t_binbuf *binbuf = canvas->gl_obj.te_binbuf;
     t_atom *ap = binbuf_getvec(binbuf);
     t_symbol *classname = atom_getsymbol(ap);

What's going on here?  Am I doing something wrong?

Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a  
more direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in  
practice, it can change entire economies.     - Amy Smith
