How do i use a patcher argument in a scripting name (varname)?
Jan 02 2011 | 8:01 pm
my google foo has failed me.
How do i use #1 in a scripting name? (or more precisely, is there a way that doesn't involve loadbang and "varname #1-name"?)

- Jan 02 2011 | 8:35 pmgood question. normally i would think that when you split the # from 1 and sprintf them together when sending the script command it could work for max v4 style scripting?[t '#'] [t 1][sprintf %s%s][list script new user external s 0 0 0 0 0 0][thispatcher]i have no max here to try. it might end up as [external $0].-110
