HI all, about the syntax:

From the command terminal:

aconnect MIDI\ Mix:1 Pure\ Data:0
invalid destination address Pure Data:0
aconnect MIDI\ Mix Pure\ Data
invalid destination address Pure Data
aconnect 'MIDI Mix' 'Pure Data'
invalid destination address Pure Data

so acconect works well with \ or ', space or not with MIDI Mix, no problem on the midi controller. My problem is Pure Data. I can't access Pure Data to connect. Which is weird as Pure Data is open and I can connect from its menu. 

I used the shell because [aconnects] doesn't let me see the error message. For now I have in my patch a [aconnect( -> [shell] and [aconnects]. I downloaded you package that is probably discontinued and used that.  I tried finding [aconnect] but cannot find that external. I saw somewhere it's in ggee, I donwloaded added the path but doesn't find [aconnect].

This is where I'm at. Hope it's clear er now.
Thanks for your help

checking the help-patches again (it's been a while...) i see that:
- [aconnects] has been obsoleted by [aconnect] since v0.5 (which has
been released 3 years ago)
- both help-patches of [aconnect] and [aconnects] show how to deal with
spaces in the client names (the former documents backslash-escapes; the
latter documents using zexy's [l2s], which was one option for older
versions of Pd)
