Hey all
I'm using current git master and found that the way color information of iemguis is stored in the patch file has changed. The number representing 6-bit-per-channel rgb values got replaced by a hexadecimal encoding like '#dfdfdf'. That is a huge advantage, but how far back are such patches compatible? What is the oldest version of Pd that loads patches using hex color codes correctly?

Ah, cool. Pd versions from current distro releases are covered, then.

Thanks for the hint. For me, recent features are often too attractive to care about such old versions ;-)
