I know this isn't really PD based but it kind of is:) I'm using pd in my work but there's the possibility of collaboration with someone using MAX on the horizon based on some stuff I've done already with PD.
Now, I don't have a mac so I can't really try it out.
What I need to know is does max have tcp sockets and if so, is there any point of sending textual data to it (ie can it split and process text like pd can)?
(I'm not purely sending synchronization data but lots of data streams -from non music environments- for generation of whatever it is we do)
I realise this isn't strictly pd but I guessed most (or at-least) some of you have tried something cross-environment or just used both programs.
Thanks for your help. Ed, Suppose, Nottingham UK. http://www.suppose.co.uk http://ed.suppose.co.uk ed@suppose.co.uk

there are some netsend/receive objects out there for max but AFAIR they cause more troubles than they solve, OSC would be the way to go I guess

yes, lot's of, and if all else fails there is macperl ;)

There also is Thomas' pyext, which is written in flext an thus *might* run in Max as well. Then you could use all of python's networking modules, and there are a lot...

I'm sorry, pyext won't run with Max at this time because Max/MSP for OSX only wants CFM binary files as externals, but Python would only run with Mach-O. I also tried with OS9 a while ago (which was brute-force) but without success. Cycling tries to enable Mach-O binaries in the future and pyext has to wait for that
best greetings, Thomas
http://www.opendragon.com/ has a few tcp/ip externals for Max/msp that are capable of recieving regular text messages if I remember correctly. But maybe not. But anyway, they're for regular tcp/ip connections and you can send whatever back and forth. But I don't remember how Max handles the data once it's there.

Cheers everyone. Well at least I know I can get the data fed into his environment I'm not sure it'll come off though. Basically, if there was any time we'd get together etc but it's in 2 days and he said he might turn up on the night with his powerbook but wasn't sure if he could get the data in etc... Thanks. Ed
