hi miller, hi devs ...

i wrote an abstraction using message-based patching ...

therefor, i was sending the messages to pd-test.pd ... but since it's an abstraction all other instances of test will receive the same message, resulting in the multiple creation of the object ...

to solve this, i had to use namecanvas $0-test... and send the messages there ... (example patch is attatched)

am i missing something obvious or is namecanvas not as obsolete as the helpfile says...

cheers ... tim
