Re: [PD] Objects with the same name.

this has been a problem for a long time. for instance, the counter object, which is in GEM and also cyclone (i think). regarding that object specifically, Pd's library loading is case specific, right? perhaps simply renaming the cyclone max-style object from "counter" to "Counter" would be a nice idea? it's something i've been thinking about... it's a hassle!! i never know which "counter" people are using when i use their patches...

Just open the C script in a text editor and search and replace 'limiter' by 'limiter_z' for exemple, then in the make file do the same and recompile, it should work. Alex

I noticed that the Zexy library contains an object called limiter~.
 This object and the limiter~ external have the same object name so
when I try to load the limiter~ object I'm guessing it loads the one
that appeared in the pd startup command line first.  Is there a way
to use both without recompiling one or the other?  Renaming the
limiter~.dll doesn't work as I'm sure the actual object name is
defined with in the code.  Any help would be appreciated :/
