On second thought, maybe you're looking for something slightly more detailed. You can send something that looks like this "steve george mike;" connect [netreceive] to [unpack s s s] and steve will go to outlet 1, george to outlet 2 and mike to outlet 3. I think the thing with comma's is that PD doesn't recognize them so it just stops reading when it encounters one. Could throw everything off because it wouldn't receive the line terminator (;) either.

Dear list,
I'm sure the answer's incredibly simple, but how can I format TCP data going to Pd so that Pd can parse it like a list? At the moment it sees everything as a big string.
I've also noticed that commas seem to split the data going in, is there anything else like this I should know when sending raw TCP to Pd?
I'm using python to send all this data, btw...
Cheers, David
