Hi,
I'm with Porres in Cyclone maintenance working on revision of some Help patches.
The question is: Why count inlets and outlets from zero if Pd user have to call inlets and outlets from $1 $2 $3... ? For help patch user don't be more convenient enumerate inlets and outlets starting at number 1?
Inlets and outlets don't have any explicit numbering. Internally - in the .pd file - they are numbered starting from 0, but this hasn't any impact on how you specify them in the help-file.
The dollarargs ($1, $2, $3) do not relate to inlets at all, but to the arguments given to an abstraction.
Am I addressing your question?
