[PD] smoothing numbers: something like Max's "slide" object?

[Ali Momeni]

Thanks daniel; i'm aware of this technique.
Im specifically looking for a smoothing method that allows variable amounts
of smoothing, and also implements a way to have increasing values be
smoothed differently than decreasing values.

Any thoughts on that?
