Re: [PD] a story for Lists

Thanks Frank. This was a question which came up in discussion between Hans and I yesterday, which was on the verge of getting very confusing! I think this suggestion might help Hans with his writing.

best! Derek

This is all well and good, but no new Pd user is going to read all this,
let alone know what to do with it ;-)

It was more for Andy. ;)

For the FLOSS book I would just silently use the term list-message whenever you talk about list-messages, and maybe "set"-message when talking about "set x" etc.

That way you don't need to write confusing sentences like: "x y z" is not a list.

"x y z" may be a list or not to someone, but it's definitely not a list-message.
