[PD] sending TCP data to Pd as a list

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Commas serve as separators for messages.  Check section "2.3.4 message  
boxes" of the Pd manual:

http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Pd_documentation/x2.htm#s2.3

It discusses the difference between commas and semi-colons as messages  
separators.
