Curve~ of 0 Doesn't Produce Straight Line
It seems there is a very slight exponential curve present for the curve~ object, even with an argument of a curve~ of 0. This can be tested by using curve~ to read through the milliseconds of a somewhat long sample (~2-4 bars), as though it were the line~ object. You’ll notice a slight, but quite perceptible, increase in pitch and speed of the sample as it gets read through.
thanks for the patch stefan. here’s a patch that illustrates the problem with using a sample, alternating between a line~ playback and a curve~ playback of a given sample.

should work in Max5 but can’t remember if I checked..
Make that:

I just noticed my website didn’t like the URL with a ~ so I’ve changed the address of this page.
BTW works in Max5 although the help file is in Max4 format.
