[PD-dev] more on external perform question

[Jeffrey Hildebrand]

i guess my question is if i can have a perform function not in a tilde
external. i got the headtracker to work in a tilde external, and i'm
outputting floats instead of a signal. i'm actually not doing any signal
processing in it, i just want the continuous grabbing of headtracker data.
