I seem to remember fiddling with an external that let me move abstractions around, and would automatically connect outlets to inlets based on proximity?

I thought it was maybe in [iemguts] but it doesn't look like it?

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I have a little helper abstraction and it would be nice to just move it close to the relevant inlet and have it autoconnect.

Cheers peeps!

And.... maybe it is no longer valid in Pd, but you might be thinking of the -autopatch startup flag and you disabled as I did it long ago.....

I found the abstraction I was thinking about: https://forum.puredata.info/topic/13046/a-movable-autoconnnecting-vu-meter-esp-for-debugging-code

It's not an external so much as clever use of dynamic patching techniques, will enjoy digging in when I have the time.
