+#X text 325 87 A "loadbang" message is important \, if you create instances
+of abstractions dynamically \, that have loadbangs inside. These loadbangs
+DO NOT FIRE AUTOMATICALLY in dynamically created abstractions!;
+#X text 324 148 Loadbangs in abstractions normally fire before loadbangs
+in the surrounding patch and their loadbangs may propagate to the abstraction's
+outlet. But with dynamic patching \, outlets are not yet connected
+when the object has been created \, which would make such loadbangs
+useless.;
+#X text 327 222 So in the case of dynamic patching \, you're supposed
+to know when you're finished "instantiating" \, and then call "loadbang"
+by yourself by sending a "loadbang" message at the appropriate time.
