I'm getting frustrated on one silly problem for a long time right now -.-'

I'm working on a small DSL language I want to parse trough JS in Max/MSP... The source code can be edited and loaded into a "text" object. To be able to parse the source within JS I need the hole contend of the "text" as one single symbol...

- Here I collect each line of the "text" object output in a "textedit" object, the flag "Output as one single symbol" is set, BUT: it only takes effect when I MANUALLY type into the textedit box, like adding a space and then deleted it, otherwise it will not be outputted as one single symbol... Don't know why, a bug?

So what would be other possible solutions?! I messed around with "tosymbol" which works fine - beside that all my "," characters within the text will be eliminated!!!
