Hi Steffen For example: I use it to auto-associate two abstractions, so that if a number of each is created they will have a unique channel to communicate through.
It is meant to be placed inside another abstraction that will be duplicated. Also, as you can see in the source, you can create a [value <name>Inst] (replace <name> with the same value as the [instance <name>]) and bang it at any time to simply get the number of open <name> instances. (sorry, so [v mygizmoInst] for [instance mygizmo])
I can be more verbose if you like : ) (or patch up an example)
Wow, that's extremely useful. Thanks for sharing.
Great!

Here's a little patch I've found useful. Call it with [instance name] and it will tell you how many instances currently exist with that name
CAn you give a use-case example? Please.
