great! can you explain how kiosk mode is invoked? is there a flag at start up, or can I change to kiosk mode during runtime? or is it a totally different version than the normal pd and I can only run either/or? can you send a screenshot how it looks? is it already included in one of the sources or do I have to patch the source code to get the kiosk version? marius.
