$n is treated differently in message objects, ie. [blah( .... in a message object, $n means the n'th argument of the list send into the inlet of the message (starting from $1. $0 appears to be always 0)

you need to do something like

[f $0] -> [; $1-array bla(

bang the [f], which send the value of $0 to the first argument of the message (which you access inside the message with $1). the end result being that you send "bla" to $0-array.

Hello!

I am trying to make a series of patches for a performance and am having some problems with $0 names.

I need local s/r, throw~/catch~, arrays and delread/delwrite/vd.

It works fine except with the arrays there are some problems.

[s $0-array] with [normalize( or [const 0.5( works fine, but the messages like this, don't work:

|; / |$0-array normalize \

error: 0-array: no such object

I was browsing the sources, but can't find where this is located.

pd 0.36.0, Linux

Take care,

Miha...
