You can read a file and output sequential lines as messages \, or collect lines and write them out. You can use this object to generate "models" for Gem \, for instance.; #X text 20 91 To record textual messages and save them to a file \, first send "clear" to empty the sequence and "add" to add messages (terminated with semicolons.) The message \, "add2" adds a list of atoms without finishing with a semicolon in case you want to make variable-length messages.; #X text 20 155 You can also use this object simply for storing heterogeneous sequences of messages.; #X restore 101 567 pd About_textfile; #X obj 40 369 print message; #X obj 4 597 pddp/pddplink all_about_help_patches.pd -text Usage Guide ; #X text 274 311 to semicolons.; #X connect 21 0 41 0; #X connect 23 0 41 0; #X connect 25 0 41 0; #X connect 27 0 41 0; #X connect 28 0 41 0; #X connect 29 0 41 0; #X connect 30 0 41 0; #X connect 33 0 41 0; #X connect 35 0 41 0; #X connect 36 0 41 0; #X connect 38 0 41 0; #X connect 41 0 47 0; #X connect 41 1 15 0;
