Hi,
I'm trying to control PD from another app over UDP, connecting a netreceive to a messagebox. Now i thought that, if i have a message with
; $1 $2
(cfr. patch below)
i could send for example "testrecv 10", and a receive named testrecv would receive the number. i found out that for some reason you need to send "foo testrecv 10" in stead.. can anyone tell me why? - what's happening to the foo?

furthermore, it might turn out dangerous to allow sends to every receive, because anybody can send you something like "pd quit" (which might not be what you want)
<plug src="shameless"> if it is however what you want, and if you might have other messages with varying lengths and/or type-distributions, you can always use 'sprinkler': </plug>
|testrecv 10( | [sprinkler]
[r testrecv] | [10\

ps - sprinkler is in cvs, otherwise available from me at http://www.ling.uni-potsdam.de/~moocow/projects/pd.
