Once the patch is reloaded, Pd parses the spaces out so it ends up being a list of symbols instead of one long symbol with spaces. You can use [zexy/list2symbol] at the output of [save.me.mmb] to convert it back to a symbol with spaces.

Hey Maelstrom, do you have a complicated patch that use this with? I'm just curious at organizing the layout of the patch while including these new objects that have to go everywhere.

Thanks for this, these are amazing!

Hey Maelstrom, I'm using $0 on a lot of my objects in my patch and I got save.me and my.hero to work, but when I load a file, it loads with the old number from $0. I just go in and do a search an replace in the text file, but I was wondering if it's something you've already addressed or should I not be using $0s so often?

Thanks!

What parameter are you saving that needs $0? Since $0 is specific to an instance of a patch, it doesn't really make sense to have it as a parameter value to be saved in a preset. Presets should be loadable in any instance.

Oh, and I do have some fairly complicated uses of these, but the patches aren't quite shareable yet. But almost everything I've done with these is just bigger versions of what's outlined in the helpfile.

Hello people. Just a reminder to check some abstractions for presets management that I've recently posted:

Thank you in advance for the feedback.
