You can greatly speed it up by registering one receive symbol per 
character, such as [r $0-char-1], [r $0-char-2], [r $0-char-/], etc., 
because then you're using receiver-lookup as a table of characters.

There's no limit to the possibilities of making silly implementations on 
top of a silly base. There aren't any pd interpreters that both correctly 
understand what $1 means and can't load standard <m_pd.h> externals.
