[PD] "popping" from - and prepending to - a generic message

[Matteo.sistisette]

Oh :$:$:$:$:$:$:$ (shame smiley)

It was THAT simple...

Indeed I had been looking at the reference folder and opening all the
help-anything.pd files that I didn't know, but for some reason I missed the
"list" one (maybe I thought I knew it, or I thought lists wouldn't do).

Thanks a lot guys, and sorry for bothering.

Bye
M.

It doesn't matter if it's a list or not, you can still use [list] to
turn it into a list, do a pre-pending or pre-unpending and then use
[list trim] to turn it back into a message.

Best,

Chris.
