helo,
I don't understand why most people use send and receive object all the time exept when sending message to pd.
I think > [; pd open $1.pd /path-topatch;( is very confusing.
having : [open $1.pd /path-topatch;( | [send pd] is lot's more logic.
moreover, you can add a print and see what you are doing. In this situation, you would notice that $1 is not convertet to cat. (an error in pd log would also help to find the problem).
anyway, replace [cat< by [symbol cat< and it will work.

Dear list,
I want to open from a pd patch a pd patch withe the message:
[; pd open $1.pd /path-topatch;(
With simple naming of the patches such as numbers, works beautifully. However if the name is a word, I cannot open them. What kind of command should I send to this message to make it work?
just to be clear, if I want to open cat.pd, a message [cat( will not make it happen.
Thanks for any hints!
Best, Popesz
