No, they are not different. Lines in the pd-file are interpreted as
message to a canvas using #X, a message to [canvasmaker] using #N, or a
message to an array using #A.
"#N canvas" and "#X restore" will change the receiver of the
receive-symbol #X so that it points to the correct canvas at all time.
They use pd_pushsym and pd_popsym, which maintain a list of receivers for
each receive-symbol in which only the last element is a currently active
receive-symbol.
