AFAIK, they work well for Pd objects and binary objects. The only difference I know of is that with binaries, if you load and object with the namespace prefix, then it will also claim the class name without the prefix, i.e. using [maxlib/change] will claim [change] as well. That doesn't happen with objects written in Pd. >>> anyway I'll think to a more self-explicative name... >>> >>> editmatrix seems a good candidate... >> >> can i suggest the name of 'tracker' ? > > What about "numgrid"? But yes, just because there are namespaces, does not mean that you should give generic names to your objects. Objects should still have names that describe their function well and are hopefully unique. .hc > > Ciao > -- > Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org_ __goto10.org__ > > _______________________________________________ > PD-list@iem.at mailing list > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/ > listinfo/pd-list ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- As we enjoy great advantages from inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously. - Benjamin Franklin _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
