I’m unable to find where in the docs it would describe more about the ‘Parameters’ and ‘Dependencies’ items in the ‘View’ menu of Max5.

I can see that ‘Parameters’ deals with scriptingnames and shortnames(M4L), but how do I use that window? what’s it for? and also, where can I find more information on the different labels, for example, under the ‘Type’ column within that window, I sometimes get ‘Blob’ as a type. What is a ‘blob’ or why is it called that? (seems maybe a ‘blob’ might be a larger abstraction(bpatchers, etc.) named with a scriptingname but i’m not sure…)

and I have the same basic questions about ‘View’->’Dependencies’ (what’s it for? how is it useful?)

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide(i searched on the forums but found nothing).
