You probably looked at an m_pd.h with the string patch applied, Miller's version doesn't have A_STRING:

Well, golly, I just looked at the one from your archive, and odd that you are right (ok, just a bit snide there...)
So, is this something that is intended for the Extended release?
Anyone care to fess up?

Not in 'main' there isn't. I favor using lists and adding the necessary formatting/parsing objects instead of adding a new fundamental type.

Hello all,
I was looking over the latest version of "m_pd.h", and noticed that there is now an "A_STRING" type. Does this mean that PD now supports real strings? Is there any examples of this? Or is this still just in the development stage?
Thanks,
Mike
