Bug: sorry, couldn't find help patch for "loadbang.pd"
Problem: There is no help-loadbang.pd in /usr/lib/doc/5.reference
Solution: someone who knows exactly how [loadbang] works should make one.
What does the inlet in [loadbang] do? I tried banging it and got:
error: loadbang: no method for 'bang' ... you might be able to track this down from the Find menu.
Is there a doc somewhere about [loadbang] in relation to abstractions and creation order? I just tried to load a patch which has an abstraction with a [loadbang] that is connected to a [send $1] but the [loadbang] obviously banged before the calling patch was built enough to receive it. I'm working on working around this behaviour in the patch concerned, it feels inconvenient even though I can see the logic in the behaviour.
In /Doc/5.reference/help-loadbang.pd ...
I think no utility to bang in loadbang... it is just to make an "auto" bang when the patch is opening.

It would sometimes be nice, ifit would od something. If it reacted to incoming messages like the normal bang message, this could be used to do things like:
[r reloadbang) | [loadbang] | ... (re)initialize things

no, you can feed 'loadbang' -> [loadbang]
(probably it is there for some weird compatibility)
no, there is not any inlet in max... perhaps, the reason is just that 0 is quicker to write than CLASS_NOINLET?
