IMHO, I don't think we should support other ways of specifying the help file. There are very few objects that use it, those are fixed in Pd-extended, it'll add a lot to the work of doing this, etc. etc. So I say just take the object name and add the '-help' to it. That covers 99.5% of objects. Then once its working, it should be possible to go back and add hacks to support hacks ;)
c_helpname is not a hack, it doesn't need to be «fixed», and it shouldn't be «fixed». It's there for a reason.
If I right-click help on a [*~] box, will it try to get *~-help.pd, which is not an allowed filename on win32 ?
What could hexloader possibly do about this ?
