+the whole reason to make help files be Pd patches!;
+#X text 18 56 1) For object help patches \, do not automatically turn
+on audio when the patch opens. Justification: there is no way to detect
+how the help patch audio will interact with whatever the user is already
+doing (such as opening several help patches simultaneously). Since
+unexpected audio signals can damage equipment (and ears) it is best
+to let the user turn on audio at his/her leisure.;
+#X text 18 181 You can use pddp/helplink and pddp/pddplink. See the
+"Related_objects" subpatch below for more info:;
