hi list i like to control one of those parallax servo controllers. therefore i thought to send the data via the comport object to the controller. the controller syntax is: "!SC", Channel, Ramp, pw.LOWBYTE, pw.HIGHBYTE, $0D. as "!SC" is the header, $0D the terminator and the other integers, the desired 'message' should look like this ["!SC",1,2,250,750,CR] but how could i get pd to send this string to the comport? ev'rything i tried separates messages on the comma... any idea around? thanks in advance olsen

Well, in sqlsingle, the strings are put in a buffer until we get the symbol "sqlend". Commas are added between messages.This might not help you at all, but we never know. :-)

you can generate a symbol with virtually any _ASCII_ character with [makefilename %c] (you have to know the ASCII-code of the character)
with a series of [set ...( messages to [makefilename] you could create your "weird" symbol. (a simpler way might be the use of zexy's [list2symbol] with a delimiter ",")

i tried that already but when i [symbol ,] to the cold inlet of [l2s] the "," is ignored. with the delimiter you mean this seperator for list elements? thanks&greets olsen

You need to create the "symbol ," (actually "symbol ,") with [makefilename %c] first.
Attached is a full example.

I just made a new external called [join_with_comma]. Here's the source code:
GridFlow::FObject.subclass("join_with_comma",1,1) do def _0_list(*list) send_out 0,:symbol,list.join(",").intern end end
