Hi Jonathan, and thanks for answering,

most of the nice pdx stuff isn't in libdir format, like iem and Gem,
the last isn't so hard to fix, it's a just a single word to put in startup file,
but the first is full of helpfiles where many different objects from different libs couldn't be created,
some even crashes pd (win32 still, 20120720 version).

 Also the main problem isn't really about figuring out what's happening in patches,
but something that has been often debated in the list, conflictual objects,
same name but different behaviors, like [counter] for example, is this has been solved after all?
