[PD] send a message to [pd $0-subpatch] ?

while this is true in general it doesn't apply here, as tim's example 
uses [s pd-$0-subpatch] (no message-box involved in the problematic code)

tim:
  your problem is most likely related to an outdated version of Pd you 
are using. since Pd-0.40 you can use $args within symbols, so your 
example will perfectly work.

if, for some reason, you don't feel like upgrading Pd, use hard off's 
example.

btw, with Pd>=0.40, you can also change the sendlabel of [send], which i 
think is somewhat more elegant (and efficient) than sending via 
message-boxes.
