I agree with Mathieu. Maybe one doesn't meet (or even need) those symbols *a lot*, but that would only imply that is not a *big* issue, not that it is not a *real* one. Also, it should be up to the programmer/user (I mean the PD user) to choose whether s/he needs or not to use them. If there are things that PD can load from a patch but cannot save, I think that is an issue that should be corrected. -- Email.it, the professional e-mail, gratis per te: http://www.email.it/f Sponsor: Clicca qui: http://adv.email.it/cgi-bin/foclick.cgi?mid=6588&d=1-6 _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
