If freedom of choice is a goal, then maybe the behavior should be user-configurable with a flag, allowing one to keep builtin names and use aliases for any conflicting lib classes, OR use the lib's class names and make aliases for builtins. Either could be the default as long as it's documented. Matt _______________________________________________ Pd-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
