Yes, join/split would be translatable, whereas translating "snake" can be slippery. I do think it is amusing, btw, and slides nicely next to sigmund~ and moses.
In any case, I am really liking now that "snake~" feels like an object family, that refers to the kind of signal, and you can say things like "snake~ in", "snake~ out", or even "snake~ split", "snake~ join" , or further, "snake~ rotate/flip", "snake~ encode/decode" On Wed, Jan 25, 2023 at 5:49 AM Miller Puckette via Pd-dev < [email protected]> wrote: > OK... now I'm hesitating between "snake~ in", "snake~ out" and "snake~ tap" > or "join~", "split~", and "tap~"... > > Former is more colorful (and crowds the namespace less).
