Hi Cyrille (and Iohannes), This is embarrassing; I consulted the [pd~] help file many times, but I somehow didn’t find the right placement for the -nogui flag and kept getting errors – I thought I was missing something basic. With your kind encouragement, I have found the right syntax:
[pd~ start -nogui foo.pd( Hope this can help someone else as dumb as me.

"pd~ start" takes as arguments any startup flags you wish to send the sub-process. For example, specify "-nogui" to stop the sub-process's GUI from appearing. cheers Cyrille > Phil > > Phil Stone > > Davis, CA.
