Yeah, I thought about doing that - but ran into trouble because thn really "sybol" should do the opposite but symbol already does something else (perhaps appropriately outputs the symbol "float".)
"Trigger" simlarly already defined.
Horribly, the opposite (float to symbol) is doable using "makefilename".
Also using a) oscformat/oscparse and b) list fromsymbol/tosymbol both of which I feel slightly responsible for. :)
I understand the asymmetry. Maybe there should be a "cast" object? Or an "makefloat" object?
Or maybe oscparse and tosymbol should do the expected thing when a float-looking symbol pops out?
