[PD] retrieve coordinate of objects in pd patch

[Chuckk Hubbard]

Bear with me, because this is kind of roundabout.

The only thing I can think of would be to put in a [textfile] object,
and use it to read the patch itself.  It will read the pure data patch
as though it were a text file, and you could conceivably weed through
its output, probably using [route] or [list split] to find your
objects...
The only other ways I can think of are if the object in question is
either a canvas or a scalar.  Or a crying child, in which case you'll
be able to hear it.
