i think that would be a great feature .. once i get more famliar with pd [and the languages and apis associated with it] i am going to look into how to go about implementing that . and if it even possible with the current set of the interface . if it were to be done all Max-style then a status bar would be needed to indicate the text associated with the outlet and inlets . Perhaps adding text to an outlet would require updating the t_outlet object to be able to store an extra char* member which can be used to store the text . just an idea .. not to familiar with pds system yet .

hi-
hmm .. just built an external with a lot of outlets and there came an idea into my mind: what about in/outlet tooltips? would be nice to know wich in/outlet receives which data types and does what.
