hmm... is not this too complete? the basic syntax is more or less
(apart from the scanner part):
patchfile ::= message*
message ::= targetname atom+ ';'
targetname ::= symbol
atom ::= float | symbol
the rest is evaluation: passing messages to targets... so, any
message will do, as long as there is a method defined for
a target's class. Any targetname symbol will do, as long as its
bound to an object during evaluation of the message.
