Thanks Jonathan, menunew did the trick!
IOhannes: it creates and opens a new patch -- first argument is the filename, second argument is the path.
according to the source code it does not. it simply sets the filename and path for the next to-be-created abstraction.
It turns out this is very handy for dynamically creating abstractions, e.g. for state-saving/presets :)
hmm, why don't you just use a text-file (or multiples thereof) for presets? dynamic patching can generally be avoided.
e.g. marian's [kollabs] is a very powerful Pd-vanilla state-saving system, that doesn't rely on any undocumented features.
