Hallo, Jorge Cardoso hat gesagt: // Jorge Cardoso wrote:

I'm probably missing something obvious but I don't seem to find a way of storing a named symbol.

Is there something like a [value] object for symbols?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but if you want to store a symbol for later use, just send it to the *right* inlet of a [symbol] object, and later [bang( the left inlet to output the stored symbol.

Or do you mean somthing like the [coll] or [pool] externals, which allow access of "things" by name or number?

That's exactly what I needed. [coll] seems to be crashing my PD (will figure out why later...) but I think [pool] will do the job.

Thanks, jc
