I guess this is primarily for devs:
The title says it all. When pd starts up, it does 2 instances of canvas_new() calls.
They contain templates for arrays.
[; pd-_float vis 1; pd-_float_array vis 1 (
More interestingly, it does not do canvas_free for those two instances when closing pd, suggesting this is a memory leak. So, what gives? Why does it create 2 invisible canvases, what is their function, and how do they differentiate from the regular canvases.
They aren't listed in the "Window" menu. But like any other canvas, you can send them objects and messages:
[; pd-_float obj 20 20 keyname, obj 20 80 print all_your_keys_are_belongs_to_us, connect 1 1 2 0 (
NB: Not sure if this makes any difference but this is pd-l2ork code based on pd-extended...
