the sequel!

so im opening patches with the

[; pd open <patchname.pd> <filepath> (

message to pd. Now i'm looking into closing these patches. A command that is internal to the patch (like ; patch close) would be convenient because i could close only one patch at a time.

I toyed with the pd-patch clear command but that leaves the patch open and clears all instances of that patch. As i understand there is a namecanvas work around but before i tried to wrap my head around the namecanvas object i thought i'd ask if anyone has found a simple way to do this?

thanks

it's called menuclose you guys, (and gals) and it closes the latest instance of the patch that you load.

i'm gonna put all of this info in one place and maybe write an example patch sometime soon. this has been harder than it has to be but i finally did it!

Thank you.
This is useful.
I look forward to your example patch.
Keep well ~ Shankar
