I think I'd suggest not including the port-listneing part in the extern, but only the gui-opening-and-closing functions. You can get to it from outside Pd by setting up a netreceive object (or even responding to a special hand-clap). cheers Miller On Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 10:02:57AM +1000, Jeremi

Ok, thanks. Would it be possible to write an extern for pd-vanilla that provides the start_gui / stop_gui functions Miller describes, but also listens to the port specified by -guiport, so that the GUI is started when pd-gui is run in another terminal / on another machine? Or would that be better

I don’t think so. That work is *related* but does not apply to the regular desktop pd. It’s more for launching the gui from a running libpd instance, not externally as far as I remember. Dan Wilcox @danomatika danomatika.com robo

Hi Dan, so the functionality I described earlier should work if I compile your branch of libpd? And then I could run a patch from Python without too many problems? Thanks guys, Jeremiah On 16/09/2016 12:41 AM, "Miller Puckette" wrote: > No worries. > > I _think_ I should make equivalent cals pa

No worries. I _think_ I should make equivalent cals part of Pd Vanilla, user-accessible, in which case I'm not even sure libpd will need a separate call... but I have some more thinking to do on that. cheers M On Thu, Sep 15, 2016 at 08:25:26AM -0600, Dan Wilcox wrote: > I brought your changes i

I brought your changes into the “gui_control” branch manually after I accidentally closed the PR a while ago: https://github.com/libpd/libpd/tree/gui_control I haven’t merged yet as I was waiting for people to double check / test. Dan

I believe libpd already has this capability (I've been using it but am not sure my changes made it upstream). I'm planning to put this in Pd vanilla for the next major release but since I'm on the road till end of December this won't be ready for a while (I have to have access to my doddering old

IOhannes, sorry yes I meant "patch" as in a software engineering patch rather than a PD patch. Thanks for the info, I will get in touch with Miller and see if he still thinks it's a good idea. Jonathan, yes that's exactly it. On 15/09/2016 4:21 AM, "Jonathan Wilkes via Pd-list" wrote: > Hi Jerem

Hi Jeremiah,I'm not sure what kind of feature you're describing.  Is it that you want a long running Pd instance on the rpi with the ability to connect/disconnect a _single_ GUI at will? On Tuesday, September 13, 2016 6:46 AM, IOhannes m zmölnig wrote: On 09/13/2016 09:24 AM, Jeremi
