i guess it would help for debugging of newer patches on older versions of pd.&nbsp; <br><br><br>if you create [send x] and feed it [symbol x] [symbol y] symbol z], then it will always send to x in older versions of pd, so it might be harder to find the source of error.&nbsp; however, if you just create [send], it will send to nowhere, so it will be easier to track down the point where message flow breaks down.
<br><br><br><br>another related question, do receives also have this set function in pd 0.40 ?<br><br><br>
