While definitely understanding your irritation, the only point of your writing i was able to find is that it would make it 'easier'.
No, it's that the idea of "$0 = special case" is only used when talking about message boxes; $0 is also a special case in object boxes, yet it is accepted there. Thus, I find this argument inconsistent.
I am quite willing to bear the continued burden of coaxing $0 into messages for dynamic patching (I simply have no choice). I would just like to see the reasoning against $0 in message boxes be less specious, and therefore less confusing to the overall issue.
I definitely cannot support the idea of making one special case (that arises a lot, i admit) easier, while disregarding completely the concepts and consistency.
As I said, it's the very *inconsistency* of this argument that bothers me. Phil http://www.pkstonemusic.com/pubmusic.html _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
