I see that there now are the rather peculiar "list fromsymbol" and "list tosymbol" methods in [list], but the much needed "list foreach" still is missing. Why?
most likely, because yo can do a [list foreach] as a simple abstraction (if you don't mind another name), while you cannot do a [list tosymbol].
Okay, I see. But with the same logic, [list length] could be considered superfluous.
list-drip.pd, the equivalent abstraction to "list foreach" in the [list]-abs is the most used abstraction in the whole collection. Although Matju's implementation is highly optimized, including "list foreach" as an interal method would speed things up immensely.
