"""This is an example script for the py/pyext object's basic functionality.

pyext Usage:
- Import pyext

- Inherit your class from pyext._class

- Specfiy the number of inlets and outlets:
	Use the class members (variables) _inlets and _outlets
	If not given they default to 1
	You can also use class methods with the same names to return the respective number

- Constructors/Destructors
	You can specify an __init__ constructor and/or an __del__ destructor.
	The constructor will be called with the object's arguments

	e.g. if your PD or MaxMSP object looks like
	[pyext script class arg1 arg2 arg3]

	then the __init__(self,args) function will be called with a tuple argument
	args = (arg1,arg2,arg3) 
	With this syntax, you will have to give at least one argument.
	By defining the constructor as __init__(self,*args) you can also initialize 
	the class without arguments.

- Methods called by pyext
	The general format is 'tag_inlet(self,args)' resp. 'tag_inlet(self,*args)':
		tag is the PD or MaxMSP message header.. either bang, float, list etc.
		inlet is the inlet (starting from 1) from which messages are received.
		args is a tuple which corresponds to the content of the message. args can be omitted.

	The inlet index can be omitted. The method name then has the format 'tag_(self,inlet,args)'.
	Here, the inlet index is a additional parameter to the method

	You can also set up methods which react on any message. These have the special forms
		_anything_inlet(self,args)
	or
		_anything_(self,inlet,args) 

	Please see below for examples.

	Any return values are ignored - use _outlet (see below).

	Generally, you should avoid method_, method_xx forms for your non-pyext class methods.
	Identifiers (variables and functions) with leading underscores are reserved for pyext.

- Send messages to outlets:
	Use the inherited _outlet method.
	You can either use the form
		self._outlet(outlet,arg1,arg2,arg3,arg4) ... where all args are atoms (no sequence types!)
	or
		self._outlet(outlet,arg) ... where arg is a sequence containing only atoms

- Use pyext functions and methods: 
	See the __doc__ strings of the pyext module and the pyext._class base class.
