i think it is less question of "good programming practice" but of (not) breaking functionality. if you introduce some clock delay, then the object make break the expected order of execution. - how does it work in "-nogui" mode? - how does it work in "-noloadbang" mode? - how does it work if the object is hidden in a sub-patch/abstraction? - how does it relate to other [loadbang]s? - how does it relate to other nested [loadbang]s? - how does it work with other [delay]ed [loadbang]s? using [delay] to ensure a certain order of execution can often lead to subtle problems. i wonder whether the feature of being able to suppress the bang via a pressed key during load time is worth the potential problems it makes. fgamsdr IOhannes
