Just a quick note: as operating systems treat upper- and lowercase in filenames differently (Linux is picky and will not load renderDepthSelector.pd for an object called [renderdepthselector], while Windows and OS-X will do), I try to avoid uppercase in abstraction names.
On Windows and OSX, [renderdepthselector] won't create either, though the file will be open. GetProcAddress and dlsym are case-sensitive. Then after that, class_new is case-sensitive too (because selectors are case-sensitive).
Or you go with operating system features: On *nix systems you could use a symbolic link like "ln -s renderDepthSelector.pd rds.pd".
Only on filesystems that support it. I say that because FAT is becoming *more* common on those operating systems; so when you transmit the file using flash-memory formatted the default way, you have to tar it or zip it.
