hi
there is an abstraction that is now very often used in my patches. now i'd like to modify this abs to get a new feature. for this i need to send a bang-msg to all abstractions within a patch, but not to the ones in other patches. i wonder if there is a way without having to change all abs [my_abs] in my patches into [myabs $0] or [myabs nameofpatch]. is there a way to get the name of the parent patch? ($0 of parent patch to use as an identifyer would be useless in my case because different people uses the same patch for a net-project, so everyone has his own $0. the name of parent patch would be a good indentifyer)
thanks

I don't think there is such a thing as getting at the parent's name. That's why in RRADical I require the first argument to be a freely selectable identifier, which doubles as an OSC target.
