[Csnd] suggestion for OSCbundle manual entry

Subject[Csnd] suggestion for OSCbundle manual entry
The OSCbundle opcode is very useful (and I'm now using it), but I'd like to propose adding a sentence to the manual. The description of the "kArg[][]" argument could be make a bit more clear, IMO.

Here's what it says now:

a two-dimensional array containing the arguments for each message. Its dimension 1 (number of rows) must agree with Sdest[] and Stype[]. Each row should contain the arguments for the types of each message. If a row contains fewer arguments, any remaining data items are filled with zeros. Arguments in excess of what each type string requires are ignored. 

I propose adding a sentence so that it would read as follows (added sentence in bold):

a two-dimensional array containing the arguments for each message. Its dimension 1 (number of rows) must agree with Sdest[] and Stype[]. Its dimension 2 (number of columns) must be large enough to accommodate the message with the largest number of arguments. Each row should contain the arguments for the types of each message. If a row contains fewer arguments, any remaining data items are filled with zeros. Arguments in excess of what each type string requires are ignored.
