[PD] Sensors GPIO Raspberry Pi Pd

[Julian Brooks]

Hey Ivica,

All the info is on this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-list@iem.at/msg57752.html

The object is [gpio] and whilst working fine, is pretty basic.  Jaime's
helpfile is very useful and recommended.

OAN - Had a quick look at your site for the RPI version of pd-l2ork -
really excellent documentation, looks great, hats off to you.

Should have more time next month to properly engage with pd-l2ork - looking
forward to it.

Cheers,
Julian
