[OSC_dev] data transport

[Oswald Berthold]

hi stephen, there's a couple of options.

here's a direct libpcap to OSC converter:
http://xdv.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gsniff/

or check this work:
http://delysid.org/schearnet.html

at the xdv site we also have a perl wrapper for tcpdump and i think
the wiretap project has similar utilities (try google).

you should get a good start from any of these.
bst, opt

I have gotten some feedback, and am wondering if having a C/C++ program in the middle the accept piped data from tcpdump and then send it to Supercollider as OSC messages would be the best way to go? Any other suggestions? What would be the best way to get started with this? I really need to know how to setup a program to read data piped to it in the first place, and then I need to know how to take that data and send it as an OSC message.
