With "numerical symbol" I meant a proper symbol/t_symbol, that "looks like a number", but of course it's a t_symbol. It's the thing that comes out of [makefilename %d] if you send it e.g. "123". So I'm converting floats to symbols, which I think is not what you proposed. Anyway I checked, and in m_chorddict I didn't exactly use it like I described (memory was playing tricks on me), so it's not a good example.
