i have added it to the CVS, with small changes (like making show work). i am not sure what to do with the file-io: for one thing, i don't understand why it needs to be a binary format. what is more important, i don't understand why the load/save needs to be there at all. i guess [textfile] could handle this perfectly. probably it would be nice to have a [dump( message, which sends all the area-definitions to the 2nd outlet, so the saving could be done easier.
what do you think?
you're right! simply dumping into a textfile is ok!
using [textfile] simply didn't come in my mind when I was writing the external..
