js – scripting start for beginners
Hi everyone,
I have a really noobish problem. Could you tell me how to start writing js for Live8 / Max? I have created a patch that gets names of all tracks in a set, gets title of currently selected track and also it is possible to select track you want to use. My problem is: what should I do to create, write and run the script? It escaped my notice. I want to convert my patch to a js and post (cpost?) all information (that are printed to Max main window) to a console window.
- I have installed Ableton Live Suite 8 and Max 5 and pyhon 2.5.1
- I copied LiveOSC to C:Program FilesAbletonLive x.x.xResourcesMIDI RemoteScripts (x.x.x – current version number)
- I’ve changed Midi Sync Control Surface to LiveOSC http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/6302/prefh.png
And what now?
Let say I have written already a script (e.g. pukunui’s http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=128452&hilit=+java+script ). What should I do next? Should I put this js somewhere? how can I run it? Is it possible to run it directly from cmd by “cscript myscript.js” command or perhaps the only way to use the script is creating a device that runs/uses it?

Ok I have done my patcher. It collects the name of tracks and theirs clips name. But what can I do to send this stuff on a web page as a string or string list? Is it possible? udpsend/udpreciver can do it only with max on a server.
