[L2Ork-dev] Interested in 'General Midi Mad Dash'

We could just throw it into the extra directory, then Purr will find it.

However, while args and isvisible seem to work ok, sending your pdcontrol
abstraction a dir message spits out an error message and then the wrong
directory (the directory the abstraction is in instead the directory of the
patch it is in):

error: pdcontrol: bad argumentsprint: symbol /opt/purr-data/lib/pd-l2ork/extra/

Test patch attached.
