now you can make an [unpost] object that is essentially just a pass-through to its own left outlet, except that it will collect all posts such as produced by [print] and error messages, and it will turn them into symbols, that can be picked up by symbolboxes and such. Here is an example screenshot:

Those posts are only trapped while the left outlet message is still being handled. Things return to normal as soon as the left outlet message "returns" (that is, terminates). Chaining [unpost]s will do the expected thing, which is that the last activated [unpost] that is still active is the one that picks up the posts. (However you can't send to an [unpost] object that is already active.)
