I disagree with the "$0" in message box idea.  Why not $1 then?
(Oh, because it already does something different...)

It would be interestnig to allow message boxes to access canvas creation
arguments somehow, but not that way.

Meanwhile I adopted the atan2 fix but then had to fix a compileer
error (old c compilers can't deal with declarations like "t_float f1"
that occur after non-declaration statements).  I'll leave the "bang~
inlet there - I think it doesn't need to be documented because it doesn't
do anything :)
