"init" is one of many messages that Pd and its gui send back and forth, which aren't intended to have any user-level functionality... of course, some of those messages like "connect" have proved useful at the user level; but none of them are guaranteed to do anything useful or even to be safe. The only one that's "supported" is "dsp" for turning audio computation on and off.
