just rename it. Then you can benefit from the hacking of other people and if one day you share your hacks then your neighbour won't have problems either. What some people do is to just add a prefix to their objects/abstractions/modules/classes etc. like [sttReverb] or something like that. One option is to batch process ('find and replace') the files.

Hi,
I made a patch in Pd Vanilla and happened to create some abstractions that have same names (but completely different functionality) as some Pd Extended objects; so now if I open it in Pd Extended, the externals will be used instead of my abstractions.
Is there a way I can change this precedence, and have the abstractions in the patch folder take priority over library externals in case of name clashes?
thanks m,
You're asking "how do i win a fight?" and i'd say "avoid the fight" :o) what i'm saying is you could rename those abstractions, and i'f they are used too frequently in patches you could search&replace all occurrences at once with a text editor or grep. Of course if there is no other circumstance that goes against it.
