When using -nogui on a Windows machine, you need to put a netreceive object
in your patch somehwere (you don't have to connect it or use it, just have
it there) or Pd will run extremely slowly.

The gripd Pd object has two outlets. One sends a 0 or 1 reporting connection
status, the other sends a 0 or 1 reporting if the gripd gui window is
visible (but only if the gui window is running on the same machine as Pd).
So you can connect these outlets to a ";pd quit" message so that when the
window is closed or the connection is lost Pd quits.
