Hi List,

My question is specifically about running analysis (and other methods
of csnd) through a running Python server. I notice the RunUtility
method of the csnd class, but how would you run this on an
instantiated server, for example the csserver-mult.py that Dr.
Lazzarini posted a few days ago in response to another thread.

If you are just sending strings  to the server using the send method
of a socket(), how can you call other methods  of csnd if you have a
running instance, for example the RunUtility method? Can you just
create multiple CsoundPerformanceThread() instances?

It's really a neat interface to use on multiple systems, I'm using
across two systems for running Csound instances remotely and it would
be nice if someone could point me in the direction of more
documentation bridging that gap between Python and Csound.

It seems like there are a couple really good examples on the OLPC
wiki. One thing that's definitely needed in the documentation is how
Csound expects to see the arguments to the API functions.  For
example, the Python manual might say it expects a string,  but often
times it just gives a pointer to "args". What order does Csound expect
receive the *args?

Any help someone could offer would be sincerely appreciated,
