hello!

i recall extended had an [entry] object but that seems missing in vanilla. i couldn't find flatspace or entry on externals browser.

would anyone know of an alternative i could use to input text?

i read of [cnv] / canvas but couldn't find my way around placing messages or objects to make it work.

any pointers greatly appreciated!

thank you!

@banihaykal [entry] is also in flatgui, that you can find via Find Externals...

I don't know why, but i built this chat console some time ago. It is a little bit rudimentry, but it works a little bit. It is all vanilla: chat.pd

@ingox thank you so much for this! i didn't realise it was in Flatgui and have managed to get that. will also work out with your patch as well, of which thanks so much for sharing it!
