Hello All,
Csound 6 can be used for something like live-coding. All that is possible 
using the API and some language. But could be possible to start an instance 
of Csound from the command line (i.e. the "usual" way) and then send some 
code to it (for example via telnet)?
I mean somethings like OSC opcodes.
I know Csound has yet opcodes for network communications but i guess there 
will need some opcode for compiling the received code.
Is this possible?

I don't know if i had clearly express my question or if all this is absurd
or if i'm going crazy ...
Hard sunday morning.

Thanks,
ciao,
a sleeping francesco.

Use OSC opcodes?

Yes, but it will be not possible to send an instrument code that will be
compiled.
Or not? Or it's absurd what i'm telling?

Thank You,
ciao,
francesco.

I mean somethings like the API function csnd6.csoundCompileOrc

There are two opcodes for that

ires compilestr  Sorc

compiles a string containing an orchestra

and 

ires compileorc  Ssrc

compiles from a file named Ssrc

The main issue is having a means of editing, which is provided by REPL in editors and from the command-line is a bit hard,
but it should be possible to start Csound with -Lstdin and pass instruments in score statements (now that the newline thing is
being solved).

I also thought that OSC is a good solution. Rory Walsh wrote a minimal command-line live coding program, which
you could try as well, it's in the git sources under tests/c/

In cs6 you should be able to send a string via OSC and then call the
opcode to compile an instrument.  Not tried it though.

Or send a score event including a string with -L

Great, thanks.
So many new things ...
All You developers are wonderful.

ciao,
francesco.
