[PD] Check for batch and/or nogui mode from Patch

[Thomas Mayer]

Hi,

is there a way to get information on whether Pd has been started with
-batch or -nogui from inside a patch?

I am trying to make unit tests by starting a Pd instance in batch mode
from Python, and comparing the output from [stdout] to the desired
result, and I want Pd to close itself via [; pd quit(. When Pd is not
running in batch mode, then I want to stop this message from being sent
with a [spigot], something like:

[loadbang]
|
[message for object(
|
[object-to-test]
|
[t b a]
|     |
|     [stdout]
|
|      [test-for-batch-mode]
|      |
[spigot]
|
[; pd quit(

Thanks,
Thomas
