[PD] object that receives "print to console" messages

[Ingo Scherzinger]

Hi,

 

does anybody know if I can receive the stdout that prints to the pd console?

 

I am trying to get the ID number of an hid gamecontroller / joystick
automatically at startup. I tried sending "dmesg | grep Joystick" to the
shell object which gives me the "hidraw" ID but not the one that Pd uses.

 

[print( - [hid] gives me the correct IDs but I don't know how to get these
into pd.

 

Alternatively I could use the "hidraw" ID if I would know how to open the
[hid] device with that ID.

 

Any help appreciated!

Ingo
