Yes and no, it just keeps the content of your textfile, no more, no
less (it is not a pd array).

Yes, there is no trouble to use [textfile], it was just to tell you
that there is also [text] in Pd vanilla with more options than
[textfile]. And with [text], you can save your textfile with your
patch (you can do it also with [array]), depending of what you want to
achieve.
