#############################################################
This is an implementation of puredata controlling python controlling a terminal using curses. The OSC messages are generated firstly by an interface using an STM32F103C microcontroller over a serial port. These are sent to puredata through the [comport] object, and parsed with [mrpeach/slipdec] to decode the SLIP encoded messages, and finally through [mrpeach/unpackOSC], to return the messages as standard ASCII. We can then use these to create subsequent OSC messages as described below. 
The communication between puredata and python is via [mrpeach/udpsend] and python's socket module. It is through the loopback interface on port 9999 (chosen arbitrarily). The messages are threaded in python, with simple handlers to do the work when the packets arrive.

/addpanel STRING
	creates a curses panel and window with name STRING. Immediately changes window focus to this window when created. 


/focuspanel STRING
	brings window/panel to screen immediately


/addstring STRING Y X COLOR PANEL
	writes string STRING to Y,X on screen using COLOR as text color on panel PANEL. Since puredata sees spaces in a message as a delimiter, you can draw spaces by formatting your string like_this_to_add_spaces_between_words. an example of this message would be
	[/addstring hello_world 10 0 white reverb(
	|
	[mrpeach/packOSC]
	|
	[mrpeach/udpsend]
	which will write the  string "hello world" to the screen 11 rows below the top-left corner on the panel created with the string "reverb"
	
	A more useful implementation would be 
	[/addstring wet/dry_mix_$1 10 0 reverb(
	which will accept a number input, assemble the message, and send it to the screen. Imagine the number stream is generated from a microcontroller sampling a potentiometer. 
	
	Available colors are: white, black, red, green, yellow, blue, purple, cyan


/deletestring LENGTH Y X PANEL
	same idea as /addstring, but instead overwrites any string in the screen with a space. using curses's delch element didn't work, so it amounts to a hack using addstr().


/pixelterminal 1/0
	This is by far the goofiest thing that shouldn't work but does. Message "/pixelterminal 1" will call "setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/1pix-1x1.psfu" via a subprocess.call() python command. This font was generated using NAFE (not another font editor) to create a 1x1 pixel terminal font. the string "B" is a pixel, other strings are no pixels. 
	The curses terminal is now, for all intents and purposes, able to be drawn pixel by pixel. The resolution gets set to 320 columns by 240 rows. This is intended to be a boilerplate for further, more complicated work. 
	The message "/pixelterminal 0" runs "setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Mik_8x16.gz" and sets the terminal back to 40 columns by 15 rows.
