Okay, now function M:in_1_greaterthan() needs to accept additional
data. This gets passed as an argument to the function. Arguments are
wrapped in a table in pdlua. In the following I called that table
"args", but you can call it anything. Then "args" is concatenated into
a single search string.

 function M:in_1_greaterthan(args)
     searchstring = table.concat(args, " ")
     for i, v in ipairs(self.mydata) do
       if tonumber(string.match(table.concat(v, " "), searchstring)) > 1
     then self:outlet(1, "", v) end
     end
 end


Ciao
