What's up, list!

So I'm trying to update my gui abstractions now that iemguts is in Pd-extended 0.43 by making some custom properties dialogs for them. One of the things I'm looking to do is use [iem_r] and [iem_s] to set receive names and send names for the inlets/outlets and "saving" them with [canvasargs]. I'd like to be able to input something like "$0-inlet1" as a receive name in a symbol box like you would with the normal Pd guis, but I haven't had success with it. I've had no problems doing it without dollar arguments. Has anyone found a way to do this?
