<div><div dir="ltr">Vanilla has been made compatible with initbang and closebang from 0.47, but the objects are not built in. Instead, they've been moved to the iemguts library. So to create them in Vanilla, you either have to do [iemguts/initbang] or [declare -stdpath iemguts] [initbang]. Initbang is only useful in abstractions, and [declare] is discouraged in abstractions as per the help file, so that option is out. That leaves [iemguts/initbang], but this will render the patch incompatible with L2Ork (unless L2Ork is updated with the new version of iemguts...)<br><br>[try] is a great and underrated object. It creates a fallback object, in case the first one you create can't load, so for example [iemguts/try gumbo, float] will create a float, as there is no object called "gumbo". [try] is obscured by the fact that you can't call its help file from the canvas; if you try, you instead get the helpfile for whatever object it created. You have to go through the browser to get to its helpfile, and I don't know how to do that in 2Ork.<br><br>You can use [try] to solve the initbang incompatibility problem, by creating the object [iemguts/try initbang, iemguts/initbang]. In L2Ork this will give the object [initbang] and in Vanilla it will give [iemguts/initbang]. This works, but I doubt it will occur to most users, so it might be wise to come up with a better solution.<br><br><br><br><br><div><hr>Date: Mon, 30 May 2016 07:29:56 -0400<div><div><br>From: <a href="mailto:ico@vt.edu" target="_blank">ico@vt.edu</a><br>To: <a href="mailto:l2ork-dev@disis.music.vt.edu" target="_blank">l2ork-dev@disis.music.vt.edu</a><br>Subject: Re: [L2Ork-dev] new alpha release of pd-l2ork<br><br><p dir="ltr">I will gladly include new objects.

<div><div dir="ltr">I'm enjoying the new release Ico, thanks for your work as always.<br><br>I'd like to make a case for including the most recent version of iemguts in the next L2Ork release. Aside from some bug fixes and new features, the main difference is that iemguts now includes initbang and loadang, and this is the only way of accessing them in Vanilla (0.47 and above). This means that the objects [initbang] and [closebang] are currently incompatible between Vanilla and L2Ork. In Vanilla, you have to create [iemguts/initbang], but this won't be found in L2Ork. Using "declare" isn't an option, as [initbang] is only useful in abstractions, and declare doesn't work here.<br><br>There is a workaround of creating the object [iemguts/try initbang, iemguts/initbang], which seems to be working for me.
