Hey thanks for the tip! looks like some interesting stuff....
unfortunately might not be too helpful for me. im thinking iChat
will have to be used because im on a computer that is multipurpose
and should not be altered too much. ichat comes standard with OSX....just thinking... iChat can run custom applescripts now. is there a
way to send PD messages via applescript? that would work i think...
probably with [key] plus something like this:set keyCode to "£" tell application "System Events" if UI elements enabled then keystroke keyCode end if end tell
..but i wonder if there is a way to send pd messages directly from
applescript?
an OSX way of doing command line ...
make a little script (using echo and pdsend perhaps) and put it in an
executable text file
then run that in your Applescript
you will find pdsend at /path/to/pd/Pd.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pdsend
then use [netreceive] in Pd to listen to the messages
