however, i think that the "prefix" functionality of [receives] (which is very present, being the 1st argument) is a bit confusing in this context. for me, the name [receives] would be great, if you could use it without having to the prefix (and no, i don't think that using [loadbang]->[foo bar(" is a proper replacement, nor [recevies, foo bar])
the working syntax is [receives, list foo bar], because it takes a list-message, not a anything.
I'll let you explain what is a « proper replacement ».Oh yeah, another thing that I hadn't noticed at first. Actually, I had assumed that [multireceive] was doing something interesting. What I said about using it in place of [receives] is actually wrong : in my abstractions, I just can't use [multireceive] at all for managing gui objects, because it doesn't have an outlet for telling me which thing just got modified !
Actually, I have no idea why [multireceive] exists the way it is. I can hardly think of a use for it, when it doesn't allow to distinguish between receive-symbols.
Look at the example at the top-left of receives-help.html : you can't do that with a (single) [multireceive] !
