Hi,
I was checking out msgfile (zexy 2.1), and there are some inconsistencies
that I can't work out:
- the read message doesn't work with paths/files that have spaces in them
[that's not an inconsistency, but it's something that should be standard
nowadays]
true, but i am not sure if it can be considered as a problem of [msgfile], but rather of pd in general, since there is no escape mechanism. i am even not sure, if it would be a good idea, that [msgfile] would accept lists, what you are actually requesting.
btw: afaik, you _can_ open files with a space in the path, but you need to create the symbol accordingly. for example, if you use [openpane] to get the path, it works, because [msgfile] gets a symbol containing spaces instead of a list in that case. alternatively you could also use [list2symbol] (which is also part of zexy) to create symbols with spaces, if you don't want to use [openpanel].
