Try making the message box (that says "symbol $1") into an object box, just "symbol". This converts the selector of the message coming from textfile into a message with one symbol argument, which is what makefilename needs.

hi list
I'm trying to read a filename from a textfile list.
I got the filename in pd but if I like to get this filename in a
messagebox
with $1, pd got an error:
error: $1: argument number out of range
trying to get the filename in makesymbol or makefilename:
error: makesymbol: no method for 'filename.blah'
maybe someone can tell me, why this doesn't work and what would be a working solution.
thanx a lot philipp
part of my patch that does not work:
|bang(
| __________ |textfile|
| ___________ |symbol $1(
| ______________________ |makefilename path/%s{
