Thanks for your help Antoine, and thanks IOhannes for writing aconnect. 
Do you, Antoine, happen to have an example of how to connect by device
name instead of number? Do I pass the name to aconnect in the same
message format than the numbered version?

I am also wondering how aconnect can tell different instances of Pd
apart. I fear it can not detect the instance of Pd that aconnect is part
of when multiple Pd's are running. Does anyone have an oppinion on this?

Thank you so much!
