[PD] can signal inlets that aren't the main inlet have float or message methods?

[Jonathan Wilkes]

Well, I just couldn't understand how to get the behavior you're after by looking at the inlet_new code.  But looking at that cyclone wrapper function it seems 
like you should be able to get the same behavior with a proxy inlet.

Hello Jonathan,

Yeah, scope's setup calls sic_setup (defined in shared/sickle/sic.c)
which takes in a dsp function and a float function as input. Looks like
if there is a float function passed, the signal stuff gets handled by
class_domainsignalin() while floats are handled by class_addfloat() and
there isn't a float function passed, it's just all handled by
CLASS_MAINSIGNALIN(). I know CLASS_MAINSIGNALIN() and class_addfloat()
are called from input into the main inlet, and i suppose
class_domainsignalin() is too? There's another function sic_inlet() in
sic.c but it looks like just a wrapper around inlet_new() and
pd_float().
