Hello.
Is it possible to add help patches for abstractions that get called by the "help" option of the right-button pop-up?
Thanks,
Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu.

No, but that would be nice to have. You can make something similar with PD's internal messages, documented in http://pd.iem.at/pdwiki/index.php?PdInternalMessages
See attached patches.

Hi, sorry, self-reply, but I found a problem while lokking inside my patch:

#N canvas 383 354 450 300 10; #X obj 131 83 tgl 32 0 empty empty HELP 1 16 1 8 -260818 -1 -1 0 1 ; #X obj 131 127 pack 0 symbol; #X obj 216 85 f $0; #N canvas 0 0 306 176 1003-help 0;
This above actually should be "$0-help" instead of "1003-help", but if I replace it manually (Vim) with $0-help and then open-save-close the patch, it gets replaced with the current value of $0 again.
#X text 53 80 This is the helpfile: Help; #X restore 309 51 pd $0-help;
"restore" stays fine at $0 although. Could anyone explain to me, what the policy regarding $0-named subpatches is? Are they allowed, or are they to be avoided? Also is there a way to have a $0-named table object save its contents lika array does, without resorting to loadbanged "read somedata.txt"-messages?
