Following up on this—doesn't look like anything in iemguts will help. Basically I need either
1) A way to generate a list (once) of all object names, number of inlets and outlets or 2) A way to output the number of inlets and outlets for a given object name. I've been hunting through the pd source looking for inspiration... perhaps I could write an external that calls obj_noutlets and obj_ninlets, for instance. However it would be ideal to just generate a list once that I can refer to later... If anyone has any ideas or pointers (har) I'd love to hear them! Would it be of any use to cross-post to the pd-list? Thanks everyone :) —t3db0t On Aug 2, 2010, at 3:06 PM, Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote: > > Hey t3db0t, I'm happy to see you digging into the guts! mrpeach's [which] > will tell you if an object exists or not.
