[PD] "argument out of range" when using $1/$2 for send/receive name

[Rich E]

Hi all,

I'm getting the following error in the pd window when I try to use
send/receive names like $1/$2:

error: #1/$2: argument number out of range
error: #1/gui/$2: argument number out of range

Yet, they seem to be working... should I just ignore this error
message or does anyone know if I will be having bugs in my patches?

regards,
Rich
