You said "(as it is like with any string-splitter outside of pd/max)". I
should have said it more precisely: It doesn't make sense to compare
Pd/Max with anything outside of Pd/Max regarding string-splitting,
because 'just' splitting symbols (without the implicit conversion to
float for number-like symbols) is not very practical in the Pd/World.
How do you know that it isn't practical to have numeric symbols when
splitting ?
If I read /etc/passwd (list of users on Linux&OSX) and I split at colons
and commas to get phone numbers, do you think I want Pd's help at rounding
a phone number from 383.3801 to 383.38 when converting (aller-retour) from
symbol to float to symbol, because it had too many significant digits for
Pd's taste ?
So, just call me at 383.38 because it's more practical than dialling
383.3801 ! ;)
