just an idea: This would be a feature I would like: Turn all abstractions used in a patch into subpatches, replacing the "$1's" in objects inside by the actual assigned numbers or arguments. That way you could more esily distribute a patch as one file.

It doesn't work with objects that use t_canvasenvironment, such as GridFlow's [args], but also, [canvasargs] and other similar things... whenever an abstraction looks up its own dir or search path.

the exact quote, from the g_canvas.c definition:

struct _canvasenvironment { t_symbol *ce_dir; /* directory patch lives in */ int ce_argc; /* number of "$" arguments */ t_atom *ce_argv; /* array of "$" arguments */ int ce_dollarzero; /* value of "$0" */ t_namelist *ce_path; /* search path */ };
