[PD] message formatting in pd-0.37-4

19 Jan 2009

      hi,
i need to format messages like "read ./patterns/fname" where fname is

a variable symbol.
using [read ./patterns/$1] in a message box works in a recent pd

version.
but i am bound to pd 0.37-4 for now (running PDa on a gumstix).
so, how was message formatting done in the olden pd days?
volker.
