in file attached is all the process. thank you iohannes,.

your patch makes it quite obvious why it fails:

[zexy/list2symbol] builds a single symbol from a list. e.g. when you send it a message [foo 1( (a symbol-selector "foo" and a number '1') it will create a symbol "foo 1" (with spaces!; [symbol2list] is one of the few ways to make symbols with spaces in Pd).

then you use this symbol to construct your full msgbox. of course it will now contain a lot of weird symbols (with spaces), rather than symbol/value pairs - this is what you told it to do.

attached is a fixed version of your patch.
