Attached is a script for creating an object if a pd file in search folders is dragged on a canvas but it doesn't work. This is doing a kind of loop when the plugin do pdsend "$mytoplevel obj $x $y <myDraggedObject>", the console complains 1000x that the object is already loaded and finaly couldn't create. The same command works when it's sent from a patch.

this pugin works for me however:

• it only works for patches that are stored in my fully-qualified search

path. e.g. i can drop "/home/frodel/pd-externals/foo.pd" but i cannot drop "/tmp/bar.pd" (unless i added "/tmp" to my search path).

• it has the same offset-error as the original plugin, so it's not

obvious that something has been dropped.

i do *not* get the "already loaded" error. this is with Pd-0.46-7 on Debian.
