[PD] searching for an object

[Alexandre Torres Porres]

I hope you're not using Pd extended, as we dont use that anymore

if you wanna try the new Purr Data (the new alternative to Pd Extended), it
will automatically load the [>~] object for you, without the need to
declare anything. The loaded object is from zexy (though purr data also
carries cyclone 0.2)

cheers
