hi Miller, hi all,
I took binbuf_convert(), and started hacking the import feature of cyclone library. The original routine requires a complete rewrite, being incompatible with newer max patchfiles. It loses lots of objects ('hidden', 'user', data-embedding), which is really bad, because then, even correctly recognized objects are wrongly numbered and connections go to wrong places...
Anybody having done or doing anything similar, let me know please!

hi again,
I have made some progress, so that now simple files load correctly (many things remain yet to be defined, but I need to check them first, which is much too boring...)
Curious? -- download the cyclone (>= alpha14), start pd with "-lib cyclone" option, create a [cyclone] object and click on it. Or check the source: shared/common/port.c, and cyclone-0.1/shadow/*.
