[PD] sending large arrays / soundfiles

[Kevin McCoy]

Thanks - yes I should be using netjack for this, but I'm dirty and lazy so
far on it.  I have gotten OSC to successfully transfer small arrays just
now.  I'm just now about to try it with large arrays of sound data...

Thanks for the suggestions!
