[PD] "vis 1" messages

[David McCallum]

         Is the "vis 1" coming from outside the abstraction or within it?

         If it's coming from outside you could instantiate the abstraction 
every time with a unique $1 ID, and then the "vis 1" could be sent to the 
appropriate $1-subpatch within whichever xy.pd abstraction you want.

         If you're doing "vis 1" from within the abstraction you could do a 
$0-subpatch within xp.pd and have the "vis 1" control that.

         I hope that's understandable...
