[PD] symbol2list leading zero

[rolf meesters]

hi,

i'm using

[symbol2list -]
|
|    [symbol(
|    |
|
[list2symbol]

on something like 00-ab-87-02.
the result becomes 0ab872.
so, i'm losing the leading zero's.

in other words the symbol '00' is handled like a number,
probably any symbol that looks like a number is immediately treated like
that.
which, in the case above is unexpected (at least for me).

would it then be necessary, working with texts, always to check if one's
not accidentally losing zero's?
