Ok, fixed.

It isn't implemented as a boundary, but as size parameter. Pd lookup~
tries to read from offset to offset+size. Reading past the array gets
you zero's, as is customary in Pd.

Max 5 lookup~ appears to have it implemented as an offset and a boundary
or end-point in the array. So it reads from offset to end-point.

The new version will behave like Max 5.

Ok, fixed.

As I understand it, the arguments are:
1 - array/table name
2 - initial offset in array/table (default 0)
3 - initial end-point array/table (default 512)

This is how the new help file specifies it.

Greetings,
