Your args-tuple is coming in through a pyext inlet then. It is not
made up of Python strings then, but of "Symbol"-objects, which are
specific to pyext and they represent the Pd symbol atom in Python. You
can convert them to a string using the str() builtin. (They get
automatically converted in some other uses.

This again can be done very fast using list comprehension:

  args_as_string = [str(x) for x in args]

and you can replace spaces with underscores in this step as well:

  args_as_string = [str(x).replace(" ","_") for x in args]

Ciao
