Hi Rory, hi list.
When I try to use the pd -nogui flag nothing happens, Pd doesn't do anything, I can't type anything at prompt? IS this what is supposed to ahppen, if so how do I use pd -nogui if I can't type anything at the command prompt? I'm using windows 95. Thanks in advance!
- The first thing to try is to use the flag "-open mypatch.pd" (don't forgot
the .pd ;-) this way pd will open your patch. then "loadbang" can work for you to initialyse the dsp and make some noise. You can control your patch via midi.
- You can use some other gui like the one in Pyton done by Joseph A. Sarlo.
you can download it here : http://mambo.peabody.jhu.edu/~jsarlo/gripd/
- If you want to control your patch using message instead of midi you can
use another pd on another computer. see "netsend" & "netreceive" to make the link in between. You can use pdsend and psrecv too.
4)Have a look to the doc I've put on http://iem.kug.ac.at/pdwiki/ direct link : http://iem.kug.ac.at/pdwiki/stuff/pd-msg_04.tar.gz You'll find pdscript from Guenter Geiger (is it Guenter or Geiger ? ;-) This sh script will learn you how to use pdsend. You'll find some tcl/tk script dedicated to the nogui option to load patch and send messages to pd. and many more things I hope !
Best regards,
