Auto-close patch

Hi,
Does anyone know of a method to automatically close a patch remotely
on a windows system. I know that the curtains object can shutdown a
computer, but is there one for just closeing patch?

thanks,
wes

I used a Mac - but i assume PC's have the 'thispatcher' object - you could check out the 'dispose' command.

Hi,

message dispose to [thispatcher] object. You may need to send the
clean message before (to avoid the "woud you like to save the patch?"
question). If you want to quit max, there's also the ": max quit"
possibility.

HTH,
