Yes I am using tabread4~

I looked up vline~ in the help but it seems to be missing some info on the
second and third inlets.  Is there some more information about this
object.  I'm using PD .42.5 extended on ubuntu 10.04 64bit

I tried doing this but I get an error "error: can't connect signal outlet
to control inlet"
