Problem with [tosymbol]
Hi.
Does anyone have experience getting a message including a forward slash ( / ) to output in quotes from a [tosymbol] object? I’m sure there’s a simple solution to what I’m doing, but I can’t figure it out. In the below patch I’m looking for the end result: "_/16" in a message box.
Thanks in advance for any help!

hey udo,
What you created is a symbol already. That is why symout doesn’t output the quotes. But maybe you already knew that.
And that means what you are asking is: How do you put a symbol into quotes? I checked the forum for "symbol" and "quotes" and there it is: http://cycling74.com/forums/topic.php?id=33049
all the best,

Ah, duh! Thanks, ygreg. I should drink coffee before I start a.m. patching!
Happy Saturday!

I misspelled your name ! Sorry, ygreq.
I just edited the above message as the first example here (the second one there in the link) was with space as well.
No problem,
Happy patching to you, too! ;)
Thanks, ygreq.
