Dear list,
is there a way to store a symbol and send it on a bang as the [value] or [float] objects do it with floats?

[symbol]?
you can build your own [symbolvalue] abstraction, with [receive], [send] and [symbol]. the only thing that is hard to build as a patch is creating instances after you changed the content (because the simplest solution will duplicate the values, rather than use a single source of truth)

the [symbol] object stores symbols, you can connect it to a [send] object.
[value] and [float] also have a built in send function, maybe we could include one too for [symbol], but it would break things as giving it a message "send x" these days just turns "send" to "symbol send".

One idea for [symbol] to have send method is to give it some flag, maybe? something like [symbol -s] so it understand "send something"?
Just a noob idea, don't know if it makes sense

This would just complicate the interface. Just use [symbol] + [send] and you're done.
+1
also, [symbol -s] would make it quite complicated to create a symbol "-s"...

Oh yeah, I'm jumping ahead of time here :) I thought this had been merged already, sorry ;)
