[PD] [pixelTANGO] AttributeError:

[Thomas Grill]

Hi chun,
remembering a conversation with Ben, the Pixeltango scripts don't seem 
to be well-tested with newer (starting with 2.0) py/pyext versions.
In these, a Symbol type has been introduced corresponding to the PD 
symbol type, for increased performance. It needs to be converted into 
string (using str() ), before actual string operations can be performed. 
I think this is missing in Pixeltango.

best,
Thomas
