[PD] Concatenating two atoms into one?

if you bang the 7 17 message, and then bang the message box that gets set,
pd outputs to console:

float: no method for '717'

But if you then save the patch, reload, and bang that same message box, it
outputs correctly.

Is that a bug?  Surely if behaviour is different between a live patch and a
saved patch, that constitutes buggy behaviour?

>matt's  `[set $1$2, bang(` construct is really only useful if you want
to send the data to a messagebox (but why would you want to do that?)

I often use [set $1, bang ( for things like setting a message box with the
output of openpanel, and then also triggering the message.  Had no idea
that it didn't work for floats.
