Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Roman Haefeli (reduzent) Assigned to: Miller Puckette (millerpuckette) Summary: [symbolatom\ : doesn't allow to type spaces (ascii 32)
Initial Comment: i would like to read a textfile into an object [textfile] by using the symbolatom as a gui to specify the filename. however, it fails when the filename of the file contains a space.
example patch:
[symbolatom\ | [read $1( | [textfile]

Message: Wow, such a simple fix, I wish I thought of trying years ago. This does make me think that we should have a discussion at PdCon just about spaces and symbols. I included this change in Pd-extended 0.41. Here's the commit:

the fix for this is rather trivial (see attached patch)
i'm wondering why spaces have been disabled in the first place... File Added: spacesymbol.diff
