Hm, how about this:
[info symbol]
where symbol is "pd" for pd, an array name, subpatch or abstraction name, the receive symbol of an iemgui,
or no args for "this canvas"
the only inlet takes:
"get attribute" to output an "attribute value(s)" message
"get" to get a sequence of all "attribute value(s)" messages
"symbol receive-symbol" to set a new receive symbol
pointer to set it to query a scalarpointer-to-head-of-list to query a particular canvas
It might be too complex with that many disparate classes, but it sure would
simplify the process of getting pure data :)
