why not? there is also a spigot object, when you want to search for a mark in the text, then simply send spigot a "0" message, then search and then turn spigot on again. and the msg file problem... hmm, maybe give explicit messages. I tried to replace the "bang" with [skip 1, this( and this seems to work btw. there is also a coll object, which is maybe even more powerful than the msgfile (don't know about its stability). it is in the cyclone library. marius. _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
