The arguments start from $1. $0 is a unique identifier per instance of an abstraction. The $1,...,$N strings work differently in messages and objects. $0 does nothing inside messages.
Just create an object [$1], send it a bang, and it dumps out the 1st argument of the abstraction it's in. I use it this way for floats. I think you need to declare it differently for strings/symbols. How about [symbol $1]? Chuck On Mon, Oct 15, 2012 at 10:19 AM, Charles Goyard <c...@fsck.fr> wrote: > Hi list, > > I have an abstraction named "overlap".
