[PD] Data Structures - Delete specific scalar?

Hi,

I looked at your sequencer. I didn't play around with it, but I wonder if  
you are better off using an array instead of X scalars? As I suggested  
before, you can use a variable to decide if the data is active or not,  
it's not really necessary to erase it from the patch. Also on the  
graphical side, it should be possible to hide individual array elements  
using the -v command (or not? I didn't try yet, but it works with  
individual scalars).
