a [r] is a nonlocal receiver. if you make a box that says [s $0-hit]
in the same window, it will
send its output there without a wire. Almost every pd object has a
help patch showing an
example of its usage, if you right click on the object, and choose help.

By the way, I have recently released some plugins, and include some
documentation with
them, and would be honored to know if they pass the patented
"schoappied usability test".
You can get them via:
svn checkout https://noisesmith-linux-audio.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
noisesmith-linux-audio

I have announced the plugins also to linux-audio-announce, but that is
a moderated list, so who knows when they show up on there.

Of course, I invite everyone here to take a look (lots of screenshots!).
