Thanks Miller. I see now [list] and [list append] both do the job. Yes I've seen list's help file (I am on vanilla - 0.43.3) - but the [list] object isn't in the 'help-intro.pd' file.
Unless there's a reason for the omission, I think it would be helpful if it was there. I'm coming back to Pd from a break which has rendered me a beginner again so I check 'help-intro' a lot.
