I really miss the old ctrl-alt-click to get a list of

messages understood by an object - any chance we could

have it back ? Or perhaps there's some alternative

I just opened an old patch, for example, to be told

that table no longer understands 'tabrange' (why not?)

- it would have been nice to be able to just call up a

list of what it does understand, as you used to be

able to do, in order to know how to correct this,

Using the range attribute is the way to go now. That said, for 

compatibility reason, I just reimplemented the tabrange message for 

the next incremental. Thanks for noticing it.

And you can alt+click the left inlet to get a longer list including all the common box attributes like color and presentation_position.
