[PD] [PD-announce] Oops, test3 bad, test4 up now

[Miller Puckette]

I tried that too - (as in http://msp.ucsd.edu/tmp/z.zip) - opened "a.pd", got help
on [z], no problem - there must be something I'm missing...

thanks
Miller

So if I have one folder with "parent.pd" which loads an object [abstract], stored in the same folder, PD will crash if I right click on [abstract] and ask for the help file (whether or not the file "abstract-help.pd" exists.)
