mxj how I love thee...

Have I said lately what an amazing thing it was that Cycling set it up to
imbed other languages/environments in max-msp? I have a project where I
needed to count about 50 bangs and route them out through a corresponding
outlet. Quickly I discovered that [gate] has a fixed upper limit. So I
started writing one of my insanely stupid convoluted patches with counters
feeding into counters to channel the bangs correctly (yeah, I'm sure there
is a native max-msp object somewhere that does this, but I always forget
stuff). Then I thought "hey! I can write this in java!" and a few lines
of code later:

    public void bang() {
        outletBang(curcount);
        if (++curcount > totouts) {
            error("BGcounter: exceeded total declared outputs");
            curcount = totouts;
        }
    }

life was good!

Thanks, cycling-dudes.
