Pd automatically interprets the spaces as delimiters for atoms, so you can use [list split 1] in a recursive loop (or iterative loop using [until] if the lines are really long, like hundreds of words), to split the line into a bunch of atoms.
Or send the line of text to: [list-abs/list-drip] from the list-abs library to split out into floats and symbols automatically.

Is there a way to read individual words from a text file? I've tried using [msgfile] and [textfile] but they can only read lines. I know that you can define a carriage return as a delimiter but is there a way to use a space as one?
Thanks
Antonio
