#X text 35 72 since pd lacks a quoting mechanism (like `foo bar`) there
is;
#X text 36 84 no support for spaces in symbols \, so the original max
way of;
#X text 35 96 using from/tosymbol won't work. One has to construct
symbols;
#X text 34 109 with other tools like;
#X obj 185 113 tosymbol;
#X obj 267 113 makesymbol;
#X text 248 109 or;

#X text 271 218 becomes a symbol with spaces;
#X obj 53 279 print list_again;
#X text 178 282 and can be transformed back into a list;
#X text 31 164 so this:;
#X obj 90 409 tosymbol;
#X obj 90 434 print separator;
#X text 50 353 1;
