So did I. You should be aware that reading data input from a game controller
requires the [hid] object, which currently only works in Linux. There's
always [hidin] in windows, but it's much less reliable. Also, if you plan on
using pots in the future, be aware that cheap controllers often have
Thank you all for the ideas!
I think i'll try [lpt] first and see if i get input. (btw, OT: do you guys
remember the COVOX 'sound card' for the LPT port? 8 resistors...)
Then i'd go for the hacked keyboard thing - i remember a recent thread about
how to attach a 2nd keyboard, with some xorg.conf
Dear List,
i wish to connect a simple 3-switch foot-switch to Pd, and i was hoping i

Looks cool! thanks for the idea, i think i'll give it a shot.
If, however, anyone knows how to recieve an 5v undefined-length impulse with
[comport], with little hardware fuss, i'm still interested.

You should be able to read both the DTR and CTS lines by repeatedly banging the
[info( message into [comport] and routing the dsr and cts
