You can see the 'assist' message. The Max GUI sends the 'assist' message to
an objectclass when you hover above an inlet or outlet,
It's sent to the object, not to the objectclass.
It's similar to the "dsp" method in that it's a special method-entry
registered with A_CANT, but otherwise it's the same : it's registered in
the objectclass so that it's callable in the object. It's just not
available from Max itself, as A_CANT means that its input is not a Max
message.
I don't know anything about Max, but Max's addmess looks the same as Pd's
class_addmethod, and A_CANT is exactly the same, and so are many other
things when I browse around in that manual.
