Sending "vis 0" to a toplevel canvas-object doesn't "close" the patch in
the way you might imagine : then the patch still runs, but the window is
closed AND not listed in the Window menus. It can be a useful trick. The
canvas can still be reached if you know its symbol and can be brought back
using a "vis 1". Thus it could be summoned from any patch.
