this became clear to me only afterwards. i thought "?" was meant as  
interpunctuation, not as wildcard.

ah, no: one function was using the tag "errortext", another the tags  
"verbose?", and yet another used "linecolor?".
for me, "linecolor?" represented "ordinary text", rather than "every  
other line, regardless of texttype".

makes sense. (the "verbose/syslog level tag" are rather "post",  
"error", "verbose?"; according to the Pd API)
