mmm, long term memory, thought you were someone who started off by
saying they didn't like lisp in another thread, after quick checking,
it's not ;-) Sorry about my original reply, damn random late night
replies. I really don't think java is the tool for the job, then again
i don't think it's the tool for any job pretty much. There are python
bindings for om. I am currently programming a gui builder / everything
osc controller in python. Python is fantastic for the task. It really
is super simple and elegant to control om from python, using the
bindings or osc.
