as more and more max users choose Pd for their second (or first) tool, there is going to be a growing number of people confused about what does 'forward' really mean.
oops. up until several weeks ago, i have never had access to a mac; (and an old se/30 is probably not really all too suitable for running max), so i have to admit that i didn't know that max has an object called 'forward' -- i was just looking for a short name that accurately described my object's function... btw, what does max 'forward' actually do?
that said, i'm perfectly willing to change the name of my external in the interest of clarity -- how about the current alias 'fw', or would that be too cryptic? suggestions, anyone?
of course, now i've already gone and imported it as 'forward' into cvs, but the files can be removed, at least -- cvs directories have a nasty habit of hanging about, though...
At the same time, your 'forward' is much smarter and more useful...
thanks!

ps - I'm sending this to pd-list, so as to avoid filling pd-announce with non-announcement traffic...
How about 'sprinkler'?
