Hi Jamie,

I'm using the debian package for 0.38-4 and it works fine.

It sounds like your sending a message not possible in PD, could you send
me an example snip that is causing the issue?

Everything typed into [entry] must be valid as what is typed in a
messagebox. here are a few examples:
-> means results in

hello -> symbol hello
whats up -> list whats up
10 -> 10
0.0000001 -> 1e-07
"hello" -> symbol "hello"
" hello " -> list " hello "
; test hello -> send [r test] hello
{hello} -> symbol \{hello\}
\n -> symbol n

since there is no string type this seemed the most logical way to do things

I've also used it with [tosymbol] but I don't have that external on this
machine here...

I fear the text you are entering may have symbols giving PD, and therefore
entry, trouble. :(
