let's-revive-a-more-than-10-years-old-feature-request-for-coming-update-erase-max-console-with-a-message-to-max-or-an-object

May I add another classic: Removing the bug that the console prints out white lines in some circumstances?

...though.... on the other hand.... I am having doubts.... would Max still feel like Max with those things fixed ..... ????????? ..... Some quirks became old friends, just like the misbehaving uncle at family reunions: No one is really happy when he shows up, but after all this years something would be missing without him :))))

LOL Was waiting who's gonna ask first :)

Don't worry. There will be new features, with new bugs that will remain unfixed in the future too. And older, dusty, forgotten bugs will remain.

Actually that was already implemented some time ago:

Great to learn this! Thanks a lot, Mindaugas. But it's not listed in the "Controlling Max with messages" guide within the documentation.

Yeah, they're slow on this, there are a lot of undocumented features.

challenge: write a max patch with as many undocumented features as possible

 is not is this list (the page is related to Max 5 by the way).

The one I prefer is the ability to send a list in an input as if I was sending separate data into several inputs.

"Multichannel" cables using prepend and route is a nice one too.

All documented ; max - messages

The clearmaxwindow is not is this list (the page is related to Max 5 by the way).

yes they're good, and because they're not documented I often forget about them. 

also (zoomfactor $1) into [thispatcher] can be useful for dynamic ui design
