that's funny.from my perspective (and i don't know anything, really) it *seems* that ico is speaking from the POV of someone who has been working with msgboxes that expand $0 for some time, whereas alex is mostly talking from a "wishlist" perspective.
as such i find it intersting that the two of you come to radically different conclusions about how *actually* useful that feature really is.
Whenever we need "$0" for a send name,
then i tyically use [send $0-foo], where there's no msgbox involved at all.
a table name
then i tyically use [array define $0-foo], where there's no msgbox involved at all.
or using messages as sends ;)
ah indeed. [; $0-foo init( can't say i miss this much (but ymmv).the *only* reason why i ever wanted to use $0 in a msgbox is for interacting with [soundfiler].
