Assigning scripting names to objects made by thispatcher

If I dynamically create objects with thispatcher, can I assign a name to them with the same script message?

Barring that, how can I refer to them? At the ery least I would need to move them around and connect them.

Is this a javascript job?

Thanks much in advance

With the script newdefault or script new messages, you can give the created object a scripting name, check thispatcher‘s helpfile.
In the same helpfile, you’ll also find how to move and connect objects.

Specifically, @varname NAME in the "script new" message will name it whatever you please. You can even include $1 type variables to procedurally generate them.
