[PD] [PD-announce] pd 0.45 test release

[Miller Puckette]

Hi Katya -

Most likely the 'list' trouble is it has a 'del' object - here's the fix:

--- a/src/x_time.c
+++ b/src/x_time.c
@@ -127,8 +127,7 @@ static void delay_setup(void)
     delay_class = class_new(gensym("delay"), (t_newmethod)delay_new,
         (t_method)delay_free, sizeof(t_delay), 0,
             A_DEFFLOAT, A_DEFFLOAT, A_DEFSYM, 0);
-    class_addcreator((t_newmethod)delay_new, gensym("del"),
-        A_DEFFLOAT, , A_DEFFLOAT, A_DEFSYM, 0);
+    class_addcreator((t_newmethod)delay_new, gensym("del"), A_DEFFLOAT, 0);
     class_addbang(delay_class, delay_bang);
     class_addmethod(delay_class, (t_method)delay_stop, gensym("stop"), 0);
     class_addmethod(delay_class, (t_method)delay_ft1,

(which I'll put in test 2 later but you can patch it now if you don't want to
wait :)

The business of sharing [text] borrows ideas from the design of [delwrite~] 
but also (in being able to operate anonymously through pointers) from
Krzysztof Czaja's very ahead-of-its-time design for the [xeq] object.

cheers
Miller
