+#X text 19 36 What's interesting is that while some people argue against
+segmented patch cords as a future feature in Pd \, on the grounds that
+it would lead to "sloppy" patching habits and unreadable patches \,
+I have yet to read a negative response to an email that used them in
+ASCII art. That is \, no one to my knowledge has said: "Excuse me but
+I can't ready your ASCII art \, could you please remove the 90-degree
+angles?" Evidently segmented connections are not themselves a problem--
+it's unclear to me then how their use on a Pd canvas would lead an
+otherwise lucid mind down a path of chaos and confusion.;
