thanks both, i started to try changing the 'perspec' values, but with the explanations it makes more sense than doing it by intuition. the gemwin-helpfile i had read only explained five arguments with 'view' message, instead of nine which seems to be a different method. thanks a lot ! -

What they are doing is increasing the accuracy of reading samples from a large table, using 2 32-bit floats, instead of just one. This [line~~] is a function of time, mapping time onto a 1-D path in the plane. Tabread4~ works by pointer arithmetic. My guess what happens is, you add the first

Thanks all for the feedback, Perhaps I'll look into making a set of abstractions for such thing, parsing top output in PD (as not to depend on pyx) does not seem all that fun though. I think I found the problem, and will know in 6 days. I has reinstalled the kernel and forgot to add the noapm

My solution was to have more than one buffer (e.g, 2), but if you're doing data storage and analysis this is a real pain, because you have some lists of data (e.g. from bonk|) you may want to access beginning at the end of one and continuing into another. The solution is to have a meta-table,
