reading a streaming .dat into jitter
Hi I am trying read a .dat from a remote server that is updated every second into max. i am trying to use jit.uldl object. I can download the file but need parse the file into a text file live into max.
any help would be grateful...

have you searched the forum for "parsing text file"?
have you searched your max documentation for "text"?
text, jit.textfile, regexp all come to mind.
Hi
I managed to figured out a way of retrieving the data, using as you mentioned a combination of jit.uldl and regexp objects. I used them in creating a piece of music using data from a radio telescope from Jodrell Bank, Cheshire UK.
Thanks for your reply...
