Hi, [pd_netsocket] is a new experimental object class that is part of GridFlow 0.7.6. This is only in the cvs. No warranties, but I'll do fixes and improvements upon request. There is no documentation, but the source code for it is somewhere inside gridflow/base/flow_objects.rb.

By default it uses the same protocol as Pd's [netsend], [netreceive], but there are some switches to make it slightly different, and so adapt to other line-oriented text protocols that are similar enough to Pd's.
