Hi,

I am quite new to the lang and started off a project in it using  
ruby-osc.  
I was searching throughout the net for some hints, but have not found  
much usable info on the question I have. basically my questions concern  
the usage of the ‘Message’ object and the syntax for the message body. I  
(by myself) have not been able to figure out how send stuff other than a  
plain message (i.e. int’s float’s etc) and the sample files are not very  
helpful for this. can anybody explain how they are supposed to be  
formatted?

Secondly, I wanted to know if anybody here has experience sending osc to  
the SuperCollider Server-app, any info/example code would be enormously  
helpful, since the sc-users list was not responding to this and there is  
not a big deal out there to look at, in terms of code/doc.

cheers,

Karsten
