the way to do this is via a callback function: with sys_vgui you call a function in the pd-gui process, which then can send back a message to a pd; you have to bind your object to a special receiver to receive this message. you will also be able to receive this message via a [r <special receiver>] object, there is no way to do an exclusive communication. fmasd.r IOhannes _______________________________________________ PD-dev mailing list PD-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
