Re: Running SuperColliderAU

Hello Marcin,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried executing u = Server.remote(\scau,
NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 9989));
and got the following error:
ERROR: Message 'protocol' not understood.

I'm not really familiar with .startAlive thread, so I'm not sure if I was
doing this properly, but executing the following code

u = Server(\scau, NetAddr("127.0.0.", 9989));
u.boot(startAliveThread = true);

throws this error:

ERROR: Variable 'startAliveThread' not defined.

Thanks again!
