Re: [PD] spigot~ info please

maybe it's better if you send it to hans, or commit it yourself to your externals folder?

hans is reading the list so it has already been sent to him. apart from that, i think that people should stop using [spigot~]:

• it does something different than [spigot], so it's name is confusing.

(how about [demultiplex~] or [demux~]? this name is already taken by zexy, but low and behold, zexy's [demux~] without arguments is compatible!)

• a [spigot~] that is used a signal replacement for [spigot] can also be

written as [*~]. the latter is shorter to write (why does nobody complain about the missing [multiplication~] object?) and does not trick the user into believing that signal-processing is paused (and cpu-cycles are freed) ([spigot~] is not [switch~])
