The fact that
[set <new-size-as-a-power-of-2>( | [block~]
resets the block size seam not mentioned in the help patch (nor the
manual).
It might be obvious for some, though, i don't know. I had to guess
how to use that inlet. Hence i'd like to suggest that this
information gets added to the help patch.
The question is, then, how to suggest it in the best manner?
- by this email?
- by altering the help patch and send it to Miller?
- by altering the help patch and add it to the patch tracker?
- by altering the help patch, 'diff -uw' and add that diff to the
patch tracker?
- by making a feature request in the tracker?
- another way?
Thanks for your patients.

Are we using the same help file? The one attached mentions this in the [pd block-example] subpatch.

It is the same file, i admit. The set-messages in the sub-patch are
sent to the a switch~ object, not a block~ object. Maybe I'm
misunderstanding something very fundamental, are they not different?
Anyways, that's what "sourced" my guess.
Thanks for the answer.

Similarly, [qlist] accepts "read file.txt cr" as well as "read file.txt" which isn't mentioned in the help patch for [qlist], but only the help patch for [textfile].

They are basically the same objects, their differences are described in the comments of the (shared) help-patch and mainly are how [switch~] reacts to a bang- and a 0/1-message.

Thanks for the clarifications on this. I rest my case (which asked
for rigid explanations).
