[PD] [netsend] bug?

[Mario Mey]

Jack, thank you for this patch. It works. Also thanks to Patrice... but 
I want to make it easy.

Now, I would want to know how to reproduce l2s with Vanilla (I'm trying 
to use only Vanilla).

... and there's something else: If I send "playlist" to VLC, the right 
outlet of [netsend -b] prints the playlist... but one character per 
print. Something like:

print: 43
print: 45
print: 45
print: 45
print: 45
print: 91
print: 32
print: 80
print: 108
print: 97
print: 121
print: 108
...

If I put [list tosymbol] before [print], the characters appears:

print: symbol +
print: symbol -
print: symbol -
print: symbol -
print: symbol -
print: symbol [
print: symbol
print: symbol P
print: symbol l
print: symbol a
print: symbol y
print: symbol l
...

How should I convert all this messages into one message? If possible, 
respecting the return carriage.
