Hallo, Krzysztof Czaja hat gesagt: // Krzysztof Czaja wrote:
this is not just a minor implementation detail. You are talking about introducing a completely different semantics for $0-symbols. Global symbol atoms, as they are defined currently, are immutable entities. Any Pd object may transparently store them, retrieve, etc.
"Passing $0" around through send/receives, in- and outlets and abstraction arguments is a very important idiom in Pd. It is crucial for reusability of abstractions. I admit, that I don't really understand how the proposed change works and what consequences it will have, but if it would make accessing the $0 of some remote abstraction through above mechanisms impossible, it would not only break patches, it would break a way of thinking in Pd.
Ciao
