I think this is a bad idea. If there is going to use the namespace-style prefix, then the underlying library should be formatted the same way. I don't think its useful to have yet another special case for the list objects, which this would be, especially when it does not add any new functionality at all.
i don't understand. what is the "library" you are talking about?
the "special case" for the list objects is there use of ' ' (space) in the names (the arguments to [list] define its functionality). replacing the space with a slash brings (imo) the objects back into the usual world, where the objects name defines the functionality.
i chose "/" as separator as it fits neatly into the libdir format and allows to have "list" objects both compiled into pd and external (like abstractions) to be used the same.
This could be achieved by compiling the list objects as a libdir.
how do you compile internal objects as a libdir?
