Hi Ben!
Always good to hear from you! I haven't followed CM in a long while
and I also don't have a Mac to test on currently. (In August though,
my wife and I are moving to Rochester, New York, and I think she will
have a Mac issued to her from the University, so I will able to start
regularly testing on OSX then.)
The ability for blue to call external programs gives two
options--capture output from stdout or have program write to file and
blue parses the file after execution--but both really require that the
external program be able to run the script from commandline as you
mention. I don't know if anyone else here has had experience with
CM3, but if no others answer, it might be something to bring up on a
CM mailing-list as it seems like it should be possible.
Otherwise, good luck with this issue and with your musical work!
