[PD] keycode 92: dropped

[Alexandre Porres]

yeah, I get if for the "\" key...

I've been complaining that we should be able to use "$0" in messages for the
sake of simplicity. Apparently you can if you use "\" before it... BUT... Pd
does not allow you to write it... as if it
REALLY did not want you to do it...
