Another side note: it would be nice if a negative field count for
[text get] would output all fields up to the next seperator (comma or semi).
I agree and it does so already.
I don't think so:
1 2 3 a b c d e f;
[0 3 -1( -> [text get]
gives me: "text get: bad field count (-1)"
You cannot _create_ lists ending with a comma, however. I propose a
'type' inlet in [text set] and [text insert], just for completeness and
consistency.
[11 12 13( [2( [1( <- type
| / /
[text insert ]
with above text buffer example would create:
1 2 3, foo bar baz, 11 12 13,

[text size] returns 5. [2(-[text get] returns 'symbol drei'. The
message after that is accessed with [3(-[text get].
Wow, you're right of course! *big facepalm* In all these years I never
realized that comma

There is no way to get the rest of the message. I think [text get]
could simply output all sublists consecutively. By checking the right
outlet you know if a message spans a whole line (= 0), or is part of a
comma seperated list of messages (= 1).
To be more precise: it should output all

What is the purpose of 'type' in [text] then? I find your advice of not
using a feature because it is broken - frankly -
