Text from stdin, i dunno, more txt options?

Ok I know most of you feel that text is like... not AVS.. which is ok but...

Just watch my karaoke show OK? Watch how I use AVS. If I could input txt from IRC into avs, that would totally rock the karaoke show.

And yeah, I'd still like too be able too show a playlist in txt. That would rock too.

i'm askin for more text render functionality. Maybe add support for IPC messages in AVS. I dunno, I smoke dope so maybe im high.

I can see why would you want this, but since you are a pretty limited category of users that would find it useful, i doubt it ever happen (i doubt avs will be even updated ever again for that matter...)
But i hear a lot of people blend "streams" together, why couldn't you do this? For example have a avs preset run in the back and blend the text source from some other application on top of it?
Now i don't have any clue as to how this can be done, but i've heard it's done quite often by the Vj's.

I know there's a million different ways I could VJ something together, but i'm just askin for this too be added too the wishlist. That's all. Give a programmer some way too use it and I'm sure it's going to get used.

its doable through ape, im sure...
apperantly this ape must be coded by person who really really needs it, so...

i hope william hung will become a great singer soon 😛
ofcourse this can be added to wishlist but its not likely that avs will ever get updated anyways

@jaak Please don't say that. If we're all expecting that there won't be any updates, threre sure won't be any.

@t0ger and yes, an APE could do this so I suggest you start learning C++ soon 😛
