Thanks for the pointers, I don't see this implemented in Extended (42/43) or in Purr Data by extension. By readng the discussion, the patch was never included in the distribution, right?
So it was more like a plan than a reality?

Hi, I was asking people on facebook where did they get the idea of
putting names in inlets/outlets, like: [inlet this-inlet-controls-frequency].
Not sure. But A_DEFSYM and A_DEFFLOAT are implemented in a way that allows an arbitrary number of extra float/symbol arguments, so it could be
[inlet this inlet controls frequency]
. Or following the[get]
and[set]
pattern--[inlet - this inlet controls frequency]
to skip over the first arg that is currently used for up/downsampling.Someone asked on the Purr Data list about this. It would be easy to implement, but it doesn't cover the case of setting a description for the object itself. Plus I'd much rather just leverage the documentation index in the GUI to look up tooltip data.
