[PD] flext-based objects and pd 0.39

[Thomas Grill]

Hi all,
i found a solution and it's in cvs - by default, initial attributes 
given to an objects are not hidden any more (but they can be by defining 
FLEXT_ATTRHIDE, which yields a flext build that is non-portable between 
PD versions). Flext-based externals built with the current flext cvs 
version should thus be running ok under 0.39 and other PD versions.
The new look of flext objects with attributes is probably closer to the 
PD paradigm and not too a bad compromise.

best greetings,
Thomas
