I think it's at least a bit annoying that Gem sets a hardcoded help-path prefix to "Gem" and doesn't use the objnam-help.pd pattern. I would much prefer it if Gem would behave like almost every other external/abstraction collection as this wouldn't require the special handling of Gem help files anymore. Currently some files in extra/Gem are abstractions (which have their "*-help.pd" files) other files are real help files for binary objects, but don't have a -help.pd suffix and it's all a bit, well, confusing, to say the least. Oki, I'm used to it over the years, but for a newcomer it surely is hard to follow.
