Hi Joao -
I might be misunderstanding the problem, but to specify an address like
"/parameter/bla" you can sen oscformat a list, "parameter bla" (the slashes
are delimiters between the elements of the address, each of which is a
symbol without any slashes in it.) So you can simply send the message "1"
to the object "oscformat parameter bla".
cheers
