Hi Frank,

It doesn't: "pp" (or "prepend" or nowadays: "list prepend") creates a list. whose first element will be "pd-" in that case, so in the end you have [; pd- vis 1(, which is not, what you want.
You really need to use [makefilename] here, it even is a builtin Pd object.
It did here. I got a message which reads [;pd-2200 vis 1( where $0 = 2200.
I checked it before I posted. But I also suggested [makefilename]. Can we both be right? ;-)
