This doesn't explain, why it works in patches anyway, but not in abstractions, though. iirc, it's related to the dollarg expansion mechanism. (think foo-$1-bar), and dollars not being properly quoted when save to patch. anyhow, we (at iem, where dollarg is at home :-)) changed all occurences of $n to dollarg (you can do so with a little script), when this problem first appeared about 3[*] years ago. fmasdr IOhannes [*] well, whatever smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
[PD] Problem with [$n 1]
[$n 1] often isn't recognized when I first load an abstraction. However, if I create one in a patch it creates properly, first time. So I find myself having to open my abstractions and re-create all my [$n 1] objects each time I load them. This doesn't seem to happen with [dollarg], so I have started changing my [$n 1] to [dollarg]. I am still curious as to why this is happening though. Is it a known bug?
