Yes they are all already named as you say. If the library folder is
located in extra then they all open with rightclick > help, so the names
should be fine. But PD cannot find them if the library is located next
to the patch I am working on. We tried yesterday under Windows and now I
tested it on Linux

your help file should have exactly the same filename as the original
patch, but with -help.pd as its suffix.
so, for example, if your patch is called sine_tone.pd
then the help patch has to be called sine_tone-help.pd
it shouldn't matter about the extra folder if you do it correctly.

Hi
I am giving a very short PD workshop soon and I want to give
students a folder with some ready made examples. Within that folder
there is a small library with some abstractions the examples use.
Each abstraction has its own help file next to it. However right
click > help on the abstraction objects of the examples does not
open the help files because PD cannot find them. It only works if
the library is located in the extra folder. This I want to avoid if
possible.
I have tried to add the path of my library with abstractions in the
preferences but this does not work. Is there any other simple way to
achieve this?
thanks
