#X text 58 12 - sends messages without patch cords.;
#X text 481 26 At this point \, it is necessary to explain 'locality'
and 'scope'. When creating a [send] and/or [receive] object it is helpful
to determine whether or not the messages you pass through those objects
will be used by only ONE patch \, or throughout all open patches.;
#X obj 229 34 s;
#X text 23 35 This object can be abbreviated as;
#X text 23 158 Send and recevie objects are given a name to tell them
who to connect to. Here is a simple example of how these objects work
together:;
#X text 25 60 The [send] object \, and its counterpart \, [receive]
\, are useful for linking objects and subroutines together in a single
canvas or throughout multiple patches. Understanding these objects
will help 'clean up' your patches and allow you to communicate messages
between various modules that you build or between objects where patch
cords are not possible.;

#X text 475 166 TO SEND MESSAGES TO ALL RECEIVES OF THE SAME NAME IN
ALL OPEN PATCHES - global scope.;
#X text 482 95 To observe these features \, click on the following
sub-patches to open each one on your screen. Move them all so that
you can see each one clearly and also see this main patch.;
#X text 470 397 TO SEND MESSAGES TO RECEIVE OBJECTS WITHIN A SINGLE
PATCH - local scope.;
#X text 480 426 There are many cases where you may want messages to
be sent within a single patch. For example \, you might have designed
many modules with a receive object called [r number] but you want that
'number' to be passed to only the objects within a single module so
that they don't effect the performance of the other modules.;
#X text 481 506 In these cases \, you should use "local variables"
to name your send and receive objects. Local variables are assigned
using dollar signs and numbers. There is more documentation about this
in 2.control.examples/locality.pd;

#X text 477 262 Send objects simply post their information to the cyberspace
within your computer (that's one way to look at it!) Receive objects
simply keep their ears open for all messages floating through that
cyberspace from send objects of the same name! Hence \, if you name
a [send] something like "foo" \, then all [receive] objects in open
patches named "foo" will 'hear' those messages. Also note that the
term 'open patches' includes all sub-patches \, abstractions and patches
that are currently open in PD - they don't have to be VISIBLE...they
only have to be active.;

This functionality can be accessed by right-clicking on the object
and choosing "Properties" from the menu that appears.;

#X text 333 117 In other words \, these objects can send and/or receive
messages without attaching a separate [send] or [receive] object to
them with a patch cord.;
