While I fully follow your reasoning how 2) is the cleaner and more correct long-term solution (a real error handling facility), 1) is probably a more pragmatic approach that doesn't require any code to be changed and still covers all Pd objects _and_ externals that employ 'post'. So, I'm not going to argue against 1). If iemguts or Pd would provide something like IOhannes' [canvaserror], I'd totally use it. Roman
