<p>you can send something to $0-xxx variables, but you should only
do it if it makes sense.</p>
<p>I often create abstractions using $0 as an argument, such as
[line-seg 1 2 $0], and then $3 in the abstraction is the same as
$0 in the parent. if you really want, you can export the
individual $0-values to a text file to be read in the command
line. But is it necessary?<br>

$0 is a unique number that only the abstraction itself knows
about. Typically you use it to keep things local. Just like you
can't send a message to [r $0_msg] from another patch, you can't
do it with "-send", either.
<p>Just create a new patch, put your abstraction there and add a
[receive foo] (without $0!) that will send the appropriate
message to the abstraction. Now you can do</p>
<pre>$ pd -nogui -send "foo 1"</pre>

<div>How can I pass the '$0_msg' name in a way bash and Pd
