made an object, [pddp_open] which opens a giving patch on the fly. This way, it is no longer necessary to instantiate an object in a help patch in order for it to be linked. For example, the [hid] help patch doesn't need an instance of [all_about_hid]. [all_about_hid] is opened upon request via [pddp_open]. This eliminates bugs and makes the help system load fast, since its loading much less.
