today i tried to compile gem-0.84-5 from guenter's page and made ./configure in the gem/src/Gnu directory i got a makefile then but when making it i got the error:

hi all hi IOhannes
the msgfile in ZEXY 0.8_2 now works (the lister.pd still crashes) but it seems there is a problem with the way it makes free the files it uses for other processes ...
::: and now an attempt for me to explain myself ^_^ :::
i use an external app wich creates and writes files every 10-50 seconds and PD reads the data in those files every 20 seconds (textfile), it works very fine (i should expect access violations one day but actually i haver never seen any)
the problem is: i would like to use msgfile because it has some interresting features, but it seems to not close the file after reading in it (access violations popup, then everything freeze). and the most strange is that i've looked at your source code with a friend (my coding knowledges are terribly poor ...) and there are close file functions for every operations msgfile can do ... so ...
what's wrong ? any clue ?
thank you

hi all
my problem is quite simple .. (shame...) i have a text file in wich there is only one line (words, numbers, dots ... etc...) i read this text file (textfile or msgfile) i connect its outlet to a send i receive it in another patch and now i want to transmit this "line" to text3d or text2d but those gem boxes only accept messages boxes [text blablabla[ as input ...
so is there a way to create a message box using what comes out of the receive box so as to make it works properly with textnd ?
please help i've started to work with PD two months ago, now i'm totally addicted but for this point i'm totally stuck °_°'
hi !
if "$1", "$2", etc in a message-box are quite different from "$1", "$2", ... in objects of abstractions. in abstractions, they refer to the arguments passed to the abstraction when created. in message-boxes they refer to the list that is passed into the message-box meaning:
=------- |1 two drei ( =------- | =----------- |foo $3 $1 ( =----------- | =------ |print|
will print something like "foo drei 1" this can be used for your problem
the major drawback of this method is, that expects to be fed with at least n arguments (n being the highest integer that was used in the form $<n>) if you pass less arguments you will get an error (so this can only be used when you have a fixed number of arguments, which is probably not what you want)
miller, how about enabling a =---- |$0 ( =---- which will output the whole list ?

hello ^_^ thanks for replying so fast !
zikaa> ------- zikaa> |r foo| zikaa> =------ zikaa> | zikaa> =--------------------- zikaa> |text $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 ( zikaa> =--------------------- zikaa> | zikaa> =-------- zikaa> |text2d | zikaa> =--------
the problem is this is the scheme i used first before the headaches start, and it does not work at all the only feedback i got from the console is "error: $1: argument number out of range" !?! here is a simplified patch i made for my tests :
#N canvas 514 109 452 302 12; #X obj 15 47 t b b b; #X msg 118 77 read xxxxs.adr; #X obj 15 136 textfile; #X msg 57 78 rewind; #X msg 15 78 bang; #X obj 15 186 s target; #X msg 15 13 bang; #X obj 165 134 r target; #X msg 165 170 text $1; #X obj 53 161 print test; #X connect 0 0 4 0; #X connect 0 1 3 0; #X connect 0 2 1 0; #X connect 1 0 2 0; #X connect 2 0 5 0; #X connect 2 0 9 0; #X connect 3 0 2 0; #X connect 4 0 2 0; #X connect 6 0 0 0; #X connect 7 0 8 0;
and it doesn't work T_T
for the xxxxs.adr, it's a simple one line text file wich can be
"128.0.0.1"
"superman.is.strong [128.0.0.1]"

indeed it would be useful, but actually i even can't output one single $1 !

You can savely remove the include in pix_movie.h. This is a leftover. I have thrown out all of my additional objects from the gem source, (This was actually an attempt to make it compile easier :)
Thank you,
