[PD] [Pd] / as separator for list2symbol?

[Chuckk Hubbard]

I'm setting up an elaborate system to save 8 subpatches to
abstractions, and read from arbitrary abstractions on loading.  The
only way I can find to do this is using the [pd open $1( message.
This message takes arguments /file/ and /path/.  [openpanel] outputs
complete path.  Now I'm trying to take the filename off the end of
that symbol and put the rest back into a pathname.  [symbol2list /]
works fine to separate it, then [list length]-[- 1]-[list split] works
fine to get the filename; but I can't seem to reassemble the path with
[list2symbol /].  Is there any way to enter / as the separator?
