Hi,

your problem is that Pd writes the messages to stderr, but the pipe operator reads from stdout. You can redirect stderr to stdout with "2>&1" before filtering the output (should also work in modern Powershell).

Hey list! Hope you're all well!

I'm debugging communication between the core and the gui with "-d 3"  and i want to filter out all those mouse "motion" and "coords" events in PowerShell.

I'm trying

./pd.com -d 3  | ? {$_ -notlike "*motion*"}

But it doesn't work. Interestingly this one does work:

"abc", ".x695480 motion 208.0 124.0 0;", "efg" | ? {$_ -notlike "*motion*"}

Whats wrong?

Cheers,

Henri.
