[PD] [list] output

[ypatios]

hello


But as far as I can tell, [list] doesn't do any conversion at its outlet--
> everything it outputs will have the selector "list", and it's up to other

[1, 1 2, a, a b, a 2 b (
|
[list ]
|
[print ]

gives the following (0.42-5):

######
print: 1
print: 1 2
print: symbol a
print: list a b
print: list a 2 b
######

so [list ] does some kind of conversion. what i don't understand is why
there is no selector printed in the first two messages, where only numbers
are present.

anyways, you should provide [+~ ] operator with an argument if you want it
to expect messsages instead of a signal (check help patch) :-)


ciao
