So, tried other things, and I see it won't be able to deal with messages including "$0" like [qlist]. So the reason must be not related to [qlist] or [textfile], but the way Pd handles (or doesn't handle) $0 in messages.
The only workaround is to forcely insert $0 with [makefilename], but then all symbols have to be local. cheers 2014-04-02 20:49 GMT-03:00 Alexandre Torres Porres <por...@gmail.com>: > By the way, haven't been really able to make it work well with [textfile]. > If you get a symbol with $0-symbol from a text file, you can't use it to > work as an address for [send]. > > > 2014-04-02 19:00 GMT-03:00 Alexandre Torres Porres <por...@gmail.com>: > > > or you could build your own [qlist] based on [text]... >> > no need to change the old and rusty code of the original [qlist]. >> >> I get the workaround, but [qlist] is built for sequencing and simpler for >> that (like, it can easily set the tempo), and I still think it wouldn't >> hurt to make it more flexible.
