[PD] store contents in table

[Ingo]

That's the way I do it.
This is also a good way for a preset management to save an entire patch with
different settings. Takes a little organisation at first but works
perfectly.

You have to remember that writing to disk might interrupt the audio stream
so you will have to write the tables manually to disk when no audio is being
pruduced.

Yeah, I think the way to work around this is what I used:
(stuff)
|
[tabwrite keymap]
[table keymap]
plus a couple messages:
) ; keymap write keymap.txt]

&
) ; keymap read keymap.txt]
& a [loadbang] to this last message should automatically reload the last
saved values.

THe table object can't save any of its contents.  It's a mistake that the
dialog box suggests that that would be possible.  (Ordinary "arrays" do
allow this.  Also, a new "array define" object does - this was introduced in
Pd 0.45 which as far as I know is only available as "vanilla".  (Pd extended
is based on a 2-year-old version of Pd.)
