afaict the gui plugins "works", but it (a) might not be what you want and (b) has some bugs that make it look like it doesn't do anything. (a) the "text-onto-patch-plugin.tcl" plugin will allow you to drop text as comments into your Pd patch. it does NOT allow you to drop patch-snippets on a patch window. it also doesn't allow you to drop entire patche files onto another patch window (in order to paste the contents of the file into the new patch). (b) at least on my linux system the comments are created somewhere off screen. it seems that the coordinates are calculated as absolute positions on my screen, and then used as (relative) coordinates in the patch. unfortunately the scroll-bars aren't updated, so the user doesn't get notified that somebody was created off-window. there's also the "patches-on-pdwindow-plugin.tcl" that allows you to drop patch-files on the Pd-window (that's the Pd-console; not a patch window) and it opens the file as expected (as a top-level patch). ghmasdrt IOhannes
