Netsend -- send Pd messages over a network
The Netsend object connects to another machine over the network for sending TCP ("stream") or UDP ("datagram") messages. An outlet reports whether the connection is open or not. A connection request should specify the name or IP address of the other host and the port number. There should be a "Netreceive" on the remote host with a matching port number.
Opt@web.fm has made compatible objects for Max so that Pd and Max can intercommunicate: see ftp://fals.ch/pub/pdnets/.
The Linux version of Pd comes with "pdsend" and "pdreceive" standalone programs. These haven't been tested in Windows yet (but the source is included in the Pd distribution.)
TCP
Outlet is nonzero if connection is open, zero otherwise.
UDP
Connect to "localhost" port 3000/3001
Close the connection
Send messages to "foo" on remote machine
creation argument: 0 or none for TCP, nonzero for UDP
