[PD] Attempting to send a string containing spaces through pack.

[B. Bogart]

Hi Luke,

There is no such thing as a "string" in PD, symbols, floats and lists
(and signals.). Johannes assumes you mean a symbol with a space, I'll
assume you mean a list. ([list symbol symbol symbol<)

To join two lists you use "glue" from zexy and use it as you've used
your "pack"  (but without creation arguments)
