Hi list, I would like to update the help patches for all the vanilla objects and PDDP objects with the revisions I've posted at: http://puredata.info/Members/jwilkes/doc/view?searchterm=revised%20doc%20fol... (Almost) all these help patches use the PDDP template and have a "META" subpatch that gives info for object name, description, xlets, author(s), library, help patch author(s), and an initial attempt at some keywords that describe each object's behavior.
(all the vanilla objects are located in the 5.Reference folder)
A few questions:
- What's the easiest way to do this? Do I just post a .tar file containing the help patches in
5.Reference?
2) Help patches for expr, nqpoly, and a few other externals are located in 5.Reference. Is this a mistake-- shouldn't they be located in their respective folders?
Damn, this looks great! I guess I should have read up on what you've been up to before ranting about help patches.
Is there a template and wiki page with design info? I'm surprised the PDDP has not been used as extensively before.

I took a look at "search-test.pd" and noticed dependecies [s2l] [list_folder] and [getdir]. Can't seem to find [list_folder]. Where could I get it?
I'm a fairly new user, and still find it difficult to find information sometimes. Seems like this could be a great tool.
Oops, that should be folder_list. (It's correct in the patch, just not in my comment)

Oh, Hans suggested I request commit access to update these help patches. I've never used SVN before, but I'm happy to spend some time learning to get the revisions into pd-ext.
