[PD] objects with no alphanumerical names, how to build them?

[Alexandre Torres Porres]

I also asked something in my first email and I hope I can confirm it


I tried making a second name - or an "alias" - for [equals~] (using C.2.9
class_addcreator C.2.9 in
http://pdstatic.iem.at/externals-HOWTO/pd-externals-HOWTOse8.html )

But it didn't seem to work. I can get [==~] to instantiate as an alias, but
only after I first instantiate it as "[equals~]".

So, what's the deal, when does this aliasing work? Only if you load it as a
library?
