[PD] [msgfile] and [textfile] problems.

[marius schebella]

hi david,
don't know why the error occurs, but maybe you could use the [until] 
object to solve it.

[bang(  [r bang when msgfile printout is finished]
  |     /
[until]
  |
[msgfile]
  |      \
[print] [send bang to right inlet of until when finished]

marius.
