Yes, what seems strange is that s_list and s_signal were defined in the shipped pd.def but not in pd.lib... > otoh, i do think that those global variables (`e.g. `s_float`) shouldn't > be used in the first place: use the `gensym()` equivalents. Why? I used these variable because I assumed that they are more efficient than using `gensym()` (and as they are defined EXTERN I also assumed that they can be used). But yes perhaps a better solution would be to generate and store the symbols in the new method of the object using `gensym()` (and it will be the same but for the sustainability of old codes, these symbols must be included).
