Someday, in a version > 5.0, it would be nice if pcontrol could open 

tutorials in addition to help files. Either via a tutorial keyword, or 

better still, having it look for tutorials after it looked for help 

This would allow third party help files to behave more like Max 5 help

better still, having it look for tutorials after it looked for help  
files with a given name.

This would allow third party help files to behave more like Max 5 help  
files.

This made me think how nice it would be to have a simple tutorial patch browser.

Just save the following in Extras for easy access to the tutorials:

There's a very rich documentation architecture in place for Max 5.
