Yeah, its great that you made this. I think people are too used to
thinking that some things are set in stone, like message boxes and
arguments. But you really can make your own. And you did it in Pd
event, bonus points there :-D

There are plenty of bugs still, but this might be the type of thing

Here's a start -- it requires [s2l] and [l2s] from zexy, though

may be a way to do it vanilla, but possibly not).

Someone could write their own message box object and make it do

The message box could just be a GUI object like any other, there
is nothing
inherently unique about it.
It wouldn't even need to be a "GUI" object. just make it an
objectbox class
named [m]. Then "$1" (etc) becomes the same as in other
objectboxes, and
then another syntax can be used to mean message arguments. Except
that if
it's not a GUI object, then it's not clickable, and stuff.
User-wise, there _is_ something inherently unique to the
messagebox, but it
happens to be exactly the difference that we'd like to eliminate.
