[PD] Simulation of Motorized Faders with pd and touchOSC for android

[Michal Seta]

I guess everyone is too busy (so am I), it's probably too late but attached
is my take on this.
This should work providing TouchOSC accepts OSC messages to control its
sliders.
You will have to fill in the blanks but the core is there.

Cheers.
