Hello everybody.

I'm quite new to pd.
I need to run a patch from terminal without gui and i was wondering :
there's any way to pass arguments to the patch directly from the command line ?( something like pd -open <file_name> arg1 arg2 arg3 .. )
if no, there's any other way to pass arguments to a patch during opening?

Thanks

I don't think there is a way to do that. But you can use the -send flag to send a message to a global receiver. The message gets send after loading all the patches specified on the command line.

If you have a master patch, it can receive a message (via a [receive] object or a [netreceive]) that tells him to load an abstraction with arguments.
