if the situation with the symbolatom doesn't change i'd like to make
a workaround where preferably [entry] is used, but if not available
it will fall back to the symbol atom. is it possible to detect
somehow if entry is loaded sucessfuly?

before i change my policy about using externals in netpd, i would
like to ask (probably miller?), if there is a chance, that symbolatom is changed accordingly in the future?When I asked about spaces in symbols on the pd-dev list Miller's reply was: "1. spaces in symbols are a parsing/formatting problem, not a
data type problem." So that would indicate that he sees it as a problem
that must be fixed. Be good if someone could submit a nice clean patch to fix the parsing problem and see if he accepts it.Another similar reply to the issue of symbol table saturation was
"2. use arrays as strings as I proposed;" which isn't currently possible in
your use-case because the symbol input box itself won't let you input
spaces to even get them into an array.Best,
Chris.
