use them to annotate your patch \, explain how something works \, add
a copyright notice \, or anything else.;
#X text 85 74 All text in Pure Data is just a series of symbol and/or
float atoms. You create Pd objects by typing text into an object box
\, but you can also write text as a comment for your patch (like this
one).;
#X text 85 224 To create a comment \, use the "Put" menu or click <Control-5>.
;
#X text 55 267 ***;
#X text 85 347 Otherwise your phone number will interpreted as a float
atom and you will lose some rather important precision!;
#X text 85 267 Remember: text inside a comment is just a series of
atoms \, and will be formatted accordingly. For example: if you want
to jot down a large value like a phone number in pd \, use hyphens
or multiple dots so that pd will interpret it as a symbol atom.;
