ftm.object Definition of static named FTM objects, constants and variables
This module is used to statically define values and associate them to a name.
Names can have either global or local scope. Names with local scope are valid within a patcher file (also abstraction, bpatcher, etc.). This way values in abstractions can have their own local names.
FTM objects are defined by a class name and instantiation arguments. Constants are defined by using the keyword "const" followed by value or expression. For numeric values the "const" keyword can be ommited. The "var" keyword followed by a value or expression allows for defining variables.
Double-clicking on the definition of an FTM object opens a graphical editor.
