Hallo,

Well, if you send the message "list 7" to [symbol] it will output
"symbol list," when, according to all_about_data_types.pd, it ought
to
output "symbol float."
Here (Pd version 0.42.4) [symbol], the object box, outputs "symbol
list".
However [symbol\, the graphical atom, shows "float". Probably some
artifact of
automatic converson going on behind our backs. A third possibility
would be to
bail out with an error "No message for list/float". I would prefer
this
behaviour. It's consistent with the behaviour of [float] receiving a
"list abc"
message.
Regarding all_about_data_types.pd: Personally I wouldn't trust this
patch.
Its a patch with examples, if you don't trust the examples, then that
seems to mean you don't trust Pd ;)
