I disagree with the "$0" in message box idea. Why not $1 then? (Oh, because it already does something different...)
But the same is true for canvas creation arguments! $0 is not a creation argument after all, i.e. it is not part of "ce_argv". Also, it really has a different purpose. So I don't really see the problem allowing it in message boxes... $0 would be a special case either way.
But I'll stop now :-)
Meanwhile I adopted the atan2 fix but then had to fix a compileer error (old c compilers can't deal with declarations like "t_float f1" that occur after non-declaration statements). I'll leave the "bang~ inlet there - I think it doesn't need to be documented because it doesn't do anything :)

and now for things we also usually ask in response to test release announcements :)
I'm just curious on why this feature has been held for so long since it's been flagged for inclusion back in the 0.49 release (and now 0.52), it's the addition of "$0" for messages, seems like there's something still "wrong" with it? => https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_pure-2Ddata_... I ask because I've been improving the documentation of handling "$0" in Pd, and it'd be much easier with it.
I also got a couple of new PRs that promote quick/minor changes to code that I consider 'bug fixes' from a documentation point of view: 1) Get rid of useless [bang~] inlet (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_pure-2Ddata_... ) cause I don't think it makes sense to document that it has no functionality (and this won't break any patches); 2) add bang method to [atan2] ( https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_pure-2Ddata_... ), because all other similar math/binary operators do this and it's just harder and more confusing to document a special inconsistent case. This is specially needed now that I'm adding references subpatches with info on i/olets and methods.
cheers
