Hi,
A recent thread on Pd Everywhere suggests that the function
rtext_senditup in g_rtext.c sometimes divides by a font width. This

It's hilarious - there's exactly one aspect of Pd run-time semantics
that depends on screen location -- inlets/outlets of subpatches are numbered
in left-to-right order on teh screen. To to thins someone has to call
gobj_getrect() on the inlet/outlet, which then not only has to report the
