[PD-dev] no longer able to "send" to UDP -- correction

[Christof Ressi]

hmmm... I just tried with Pd 0.50.2 - that's before the netobject 
updates - and [send( doesn't work with [netreceive -u] neither on 
Windows nor on Linux! Are you sure this ever worked?

The help patch explicitly says:

""send" (for TCP connections only) sends back to connected netreceive 
objects"

Note that I first send messages from [netsend -u] to [netreceive -u] 
before trying to send back (otherwise it wouldn't work in any case :-)

Do you know the commit where this feature has been apparantly introduced?
