Hi List, I'm interested in revising the help files for the basic objects in pd-ext. Basically having a standard table so that one can find quickly find basic info on an object.
I made an abstraction called htab that automatically formats this information in a gop abstraction. Currently I'm entering the info as arguments to htab, which works quite well when using ctrl-t.
However, there are currently lots of different help patch formats in the reference folder for the common pd objects. I'd like to have one standard format to make it quicker and easier to get help.
Attached are examples of what I'd like to implement. Aside from the pddp/dsp abstraction, it has the benefit of being vanilla- compatible and fitting on an 800x600 screen (at least on windows).
Please have a look at the attached and let me know if this seems like a good format or not. The patches should work with the current pd-x.
Thanks, Jonathan
