- *"pd -help" produces no output, version 0.51-4 / Win7 #1280* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1280
this issue has been resolved and closed.
it's a limitation of Windows' cmd.exe .
if you want to change it, i suggest filing a feature-request/bug-report with microsoft :-)
- *tabwrite should act sensibly upon out of bound address #1281* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1281
as explained in the issue, this is by design. if you hate it, just use [moses] to filter out the out-of-bound indices.
- *Feature Request: allow a [clone] instance to know the total number of instances #1279* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1279
i was under the impression, that in the end everybody agreed that this feature doesn't buy us anything.
[clone -n foo 20] takes the same number of chars as [clone foo 20 20] and needs more brain power to parse ("what was that '-n' flag for again?"). the other solutions require much extra work both for the implementation of the feature and for using it, making it more likely to introduce bugs.
so i don't see a point.
