I am a newbie to PD (but not to programming) and i was unable to
find the archives to this list to search for my question before
asking it.
I am interested in running Pd on a headless Mac mini. Where the mini
simply becomes an OSC and MIDI processor. But it will require Pd to
start up with a selected input and output port. It does not appear
to do that. The Tcl/Tk interface does not store the last known
configuration, forcing you to select the in/out manually each time.
I found a set of command line options, such as -miniindev -
midioutdev. i tried them along the lines of ./Pd-extended -
midioutdev 'midiiac' or -midioutdev 'MidiPipe Input 1' but no luck.
The options appear to befavoring Linux and a device such as /dev/midi.
Is there a was to have a port configured at startup on the OS X
version? My goal is to simply be able to turn on the mini and
connect using an OSC transmitting device or a controller.
I think you can add the commandline options at the end of the
startupflags in Pd-extended->Preferences->Startup. This is where I
put the name of a patch I want to start whenever I use pd.
