hi, thanks for your reply - but that locks up pd.
it only locks Pd if you are printing the character via pd-gui (either print to console or via a symbolbox) that's also the reason why it is prohibited to type curly braces in Pd.
the quick fix is to trust that curly braces are created with the [makefilename] trick and don't display them (and if you must, use "-stderr" and print them to...stderr)
seems that there are reserved characters pd uses itself (got this from the makefilename help) anyhow I can live with that:) was just wondering what is happening
curly braces are reserved in tcl (the language pd-gui is written in). displaying a "{" will make pd-gui wait for a matching "}", and while it does so, it will hang.
