symbols/floats/lists, instead of calling pd_defaultanything(), which would print "no method for string".

BTW I've just decided that my A_STRING atom type wouldn't have its own selector... its selector will be just "symbol". There's no real use to make strings and symbols any more segregated than that: most of the time, the user doesn't need to know. What class_addstring() will do is same as class_addsymbol(), but setting a flag saying that this symbol-method actually wants an A_STRING.
