Hello--

I know that it is possible for a Paradiddle program to send control data to PD using [netreceive], but has anyone had success in sending messages from PD back to Paradiddle (I assume this would involve the [netsend] object)?

Thank you,

Yep, a [netsend] should do the trick. There's heaps of network goodness in Cocoa so you should find something to pick up your packets. Stick to UDP for simplicity.

But these are mostly abstract classes for URLS, services and cookies fwict

You want a simple socket in your Paradiddle gizmo,

I don't know Paradiddle , maybe there's what you need there already, called something like NetSocket

All things indicate you want something thats a wrapper to a BSD socket.
