hello, is the a way for Pd to know what keys are being held down when a patch is loading so it changes the behaviour of an object?

for example, to prevent loadbangs to send a bang at load time?

it would have to be something like: 

hold down Shift-Command (Mac) or Shift-Ctrl (PC) to disable loadmess firing at patcher load

yes, this is for implementing a clone of [loadmess] object from max, and this is the only discrepancy left...

cheers
