OK,<br>
<br>
To get a better idea what I am doing here, is # only used at the
beginning of a string (e.g. #0-something or #1), or can it be used
anywhere (e.g. boo-#0 or blah#2boo)? Also, should it be escaped only
if it is followed by a number? (e.g. #0 should be escaped, whereas #
or #abc should not). <br>
<br>
If you can provide some clarification what are traditional uses of
this, perhaps I can put in some filtering to figure out how we can
hopefully address both scenarios.<br>
<br>
Finally, why do we even have #0 when one can simply write $0?<br>
<br>

<div>That's true, but if it helps maintaining at least some
kind of interoperability with the other Pd flavors then it
might be worth the effort.<br>

<div>I thought about that, too. Yes, that would be a viable
solution.<br>
<br>
Also, it would be nice to have a script to convert from
and to the new patch format. This would also be helpful to
fix the affected abstractions distributed with Pd-L2Ork.<br>

<div>Yes, I ran into his github repo just recently. That's a
very interesting development, looking forward to give it a
try!<br>

<div>I can only reiterate that this change *will* affect
most Pd-L2Ork users at some point, so I hope that others
will join the discussion here.<br>
