- CLI COMMANDS: part 1
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- There are many CLI commands out in the PD world. Most of them have
- documents but they get lost in the constant copying (hint). So I`ll take
- you through a couple of commands (not workbench commands, they are
- explained in your manual)
-
- Begginers: CLI commands can be copied onto your custom disk. Then you
- name them in a file called the startup-sequence. They can then be used
- when you use your disk. Puzzled? I will be writing more articles for you,
- taken from my latest PD software creation `The begginers guide disk`.
