[PD] inconsistencies in msgfile

hi.

Quoting Thomas O Fredericks <tof at danslchamp.org>:

this is not an inconsitency. you probaly do not have write-rights in / ??

> When you
> try to read with "read /test" it answers "error: msgfile_read: unable to
> open test/test"!


this is not an inconsistency either.
msgfile uses pd's search-paths to search for the file. if pd cannot  
find a file "test" it will also look for "test/test".
so if there was a file "/test" msgfile would just open it.
