no, luckily it is not like that (even though people kept requesting it 
:-)) (that is exactly what i was referring to in my sidekick on 
"set"-able sends)


it is like:


...   [symbol newname(
|     |
[send ]


that is: if your create a [send] object without(!) a send-name, it will 
have a second inlet which can be used to set the send-name.
whatever(!) you send to the first inlet (including "set bla") will be 
send to the receiver.



so you can seafely upgrade to 0.40 (and you really should do so; it is 
very nice...)
