Which one???

Not the one that is distributed together with [arduino] and [arduino-test] at 
http://at.or.at/hans/pd/objects.html, right?
yo it's in Pduino-0.5beta8 linked on this page

in the last subpatch [pd SWITCHING-INPUTS] you'll find the apropriate
messages.

There I find the same analogIns messages that are supposed to be the old ones 
(but are the only ones I've found that
work for analog pins with the latest version of Firmata)
jep i agree they're the same - i think it's a matter of wrong denotation so due to my knowledge there's nothing like old and newer messages -> the current 'contemporary' message for enabling the analog inputs is:
[analogIns pinumber 1=on; 0=off(
f.e. to enable analog pin 1:
[analogIns 1 1(
correct me if i'm wrong!


 > i don't know why this is commented with (optional)

I must have another version of the help patch, as I don't see such a comment
right behind the [pd SWITCHING-INPUTS] is a comment "<- example of switching inputs 
on and off (optional)"


How are the messages you're talking about?


i guess it's a firmata peculiarity that you've explicit have to enable
the analog pins as in arduino they are enabled by default - but correct
me if i'm wrong.

Yes, I guess what you have to explicitly enable is to have the firmware _send_ 
the values to the computer. It would be
undesirable to have a constant flood of values of all pins whether you use them 
or not.
jep right so with firmata the analogIns have to be enabled explicitly to use them. i think the (optional) comment somehow makes it ambiguous. as told i'll try to consider this in the improvements we're working on!
