just to revive this discussion: i have submitted a patch to the tracker, which enables the expansion of $# (argc) and $@ (argv).
which makes me think, that $@ is really a MUST.
I'm still undecided if "$@" or "$*" would be the preferred name, though. Both mean similar things in bash, but maybe $* would be easier to understand for the common Pd user, as the asterisk is in use not only in bash, but as a wildcard character in general.
OTOH $@ would have the mnemonics of meaning "dollar-@ll". But I think I would still prefer $* though.
