Re: [PD] dollar argument
Hi IOhannes, As far as I can tell, $@ is not included after all in Pd Extended... (I tried [list append [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [$@( ) How can we/I/Hans : ) add it to the build system? It would be great to have so that I could properly subclass route/oscroute/etc. Cheers Luke On 4/30/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Quoting Thomas Ouellet Fredericks [EMAIL PROTECTED]: There is also the overlooked very powerful [dollarg] from iemlib that converts all your arguments into a list.

Re: [PD] dollar argument
I also really like parentdollarzero from iemlib. But as for dollarg, it would be great if it could get the arguments of a parent further up the parent hierarchy. Something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or $@@... whatever) that would go up two parents, get all the arguments AND the dollar zero. That would then solve lots of state saving pains.

Hallo, Thomas Ouellet Fredericks hat gesagt: // Thomas Ouellet Fredericks wrote: There is also the overlooked very powerful [dollarg] from iemlib that converts all your arguments into a list. But dollar also doesn't deal with converting abstraction arguments to message-variableis. ;) dollarg is cool, but first one needs to understand how dollars in general work in Pd.

Hallo, ronny vanden bempt hat gesagt: // ronny vanden bempt wrote: First a small question, that maybe you know: how can I reply to a message on the mailinglist, when I only receive digests? I don't know, this depends on your mailing software. You can always trim you quotes manually and CC the mail to pd-list@iem.at But then for the dollarsign: I put the object [symbol $1] between the bang and message box I use, but I still get an error. Now the error says: -window: no such object. Yeah, that's a problem when you don't supply any argument to the abstraction. Empty arguments are assumed to be 0 and thus you need to use [f $1] instead of [symbol $1]. Or use [symbol $1-window] with different message box contents or use the catch-all-types approach: [list append $1] Another possibility is to use a send-object instead of semicolon-messages. Sender objects are nicer anyways IMO. See attached patch for all this in action.
