I don't even know what that does, i was just looking for stuff with long names haha On 06/11/2018 15:47 PM, IOhannes m zmölnig wrote: > these examples puzzle me a bit, as they are quite the reverse of what i > consider "monolithic libraries". > when loading zexy as a multi-object library (aka "monolithic library"), > then there will be *no* [zexy/demultiplex] object, just [demultiplex].

That's why the auto complete shows the library name in the suggestion windows but doesn't type it. For example, you will search for ",demu" ant it will display "zexy/demux" so you know you should load zexy, but when you press enter it will only type demux :) The gif on the readme.md in the repository shows the three search modes in action.

What exactly would be the the problem? Processing or memory?" I read on the Netiquette that "Never ever reply to a digested email if you do not refer to exactly one email in the digest." Does that apply to standard emails too? Sorry if that's the case. This mailing list thing is completely new to me.

Is that possible for a GUI plugin? not for a gui-plugin alone. however, you can write "mixed-mode plugins" that consist of a both a gui-plugin and an external (https://git.iem.at/pd-gui/punish/ uses this quite a lot; it's basically a gui-plugin that tells Pd-core to load an external to add the necessary C-parts). > About it running on slow computers like Raspberry Pis.

Processing or memory? not sure whether this is directed at me (i don't remember saying anything about performance) > Right know the plugin only increases 424kb in RAM usage on my windows > computer and i have a reasonable amounts of externals. however, i think that the number of autocompletable objects will only have very little impact on the total RAM used by Pd(gui). i wouldn't worry about the memory foot-print at all :-) gfmdsar IOhannes
