in this grid, the last dimension refers to subparts of

the incoming grid as a Dim(200,200) of Dim(2)'s, where each
Dim(2) represents a position in a Dim(240,320) of Dim(3)'s.
therefore the resulting grid will be a Dim(200,200) of
Dim(3) which is a Dim(200,200,3). in practice this example
would be used for generating a 200*200 RGB picture from a
200*200 XY map and a 240*320 RGB picture. this object can

<br><b>inlet 1 </b><b>method</b> put_at <b>(</b>indices...<b>)</b> (Future Use):
makes it so that sending a grid to inlet 1 writes into the existing buffer of [#store]. <p>
example: suppose you have <kbd><font color="#007777">[#store {10 240 320 3}]</font></kbd>. then "put_at 3"
will allow to write a Dim[240,320,3] grid in indices (3,y,x,c) where y,x,c are indices of the incoming grid;
in other words, if that's a buffer of 10 RGB frames, you'd be replacing frame #3. Furthermore,
it also allows you to write a Dim[n,240,320,3] grid at (3+f,y,x,c) where f,y,x,c are indices of the incoming grid,
replacing frame #3, #4, ... up to #3+n-1. Here n is at most 7 because the last frame in the buffer is #9. </p> <p>that way of working extends to other kinds of data you'd put in Grids, in any numbers of dimensions;
