[PD] bi-directional OSC over TCP from liblo

hey jamie,

Yep, in this project (https://vimeo.com/24818342) it was going back and
forth from the core app (cpp) to pd. Using OSC. Cannot recall if TCP or
not, but can probably track it down. (that should not make much of a
difference at least outside the network layer).

So you send from liblo and pd receives, but no data unpacks? Did I get it
write? If you open a ./oscdump on command line you get the data? (meaning
it would be a pd-side issue...)

Best,
pedro
