    Hi folks! I want to input a message into node.script and that message should trigger a different message based on the npm package it has and send it as Max.post. For receiving a bang, I would have something like this var maxMessage = Max.addHandler("bang", () => {};
    So what should I put instead of "bang" if I am expecting any kind of message like, say, house, chair, light? var maxMessage = Max.addHandler("SOMETHING HERE", () => {}; Any thoughts? Thank you! ygreq

      Thank you for looking into it. It does not seem to work.
      The message I get is: node.script: Unhandled Message: ["choose","WEIRDO!"]
      which I believe is some kind of error message. Instead of: node.script: Sit down, BUDDY

      My mistake! I forgot to change the name of the js file in the Max patch. Thank you!! For sure I have to figure out how to also send the message directly.
