[PD] [text] question

[José Rafael Subía Valdez]

Thanks Liam,

the read instruction is in [GUI-creator]. I thought the other object need
the name as a pointer, the creation arguments are written as they should
be, other wise the patch wouldn't work at all, $2  inside is because it
comes from the second argument written in the [cr_gui] abstraction.

thanks for your help, I will continue to revise it, but if anyone else has
an idea why this is happening I am all ears,

cheers
