I don't know a good solution for this problem... one possible approach might be:

- make an empty subpatch, call it "patch 1".

- Send a message, "pd-patch1 ojb 10 10 pd real-patch"

Then, send messages to the sub-sub-patch, using "pd-real-patch"

to delete it, "pd-patch1 clear".

I know that's dumb. I don't yet have a good way to do this in general...

jip, the problem is more how to access a new window for example, when you go "pd menu-new;" the window pops up untitled .. when you start having several untitleds it will get tricky .. you can do pd menu-saveas or so, but that just pops up the save dialog and i couldnt find out yet how to pass the filename (= windowname) to saveas to do an automatic-save-as ...
