[CM] Receiving OSC

I'm no expert in OSC, but I think using a C library, such as
liblo would be easier to use in Snd than OscPack,
which is a C++ library.

Here's an example client: 
http://liblo.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/liblo/trunk/examples/example_client.c?revision=121&view=markup

Using eval-c, the example (up to the first "send" command only
and without the "blob"), can be written like this:

(eval-c-add-int-type "int32_t")
(eval-c "-llo"
         "#include <lo/lo.h>"
         (proto->public
          "lo_address lo_address_new(const char *host, const char *port);
           int lo_send_message (lo_address targ, const char *path, lo_message msg);
           lo_message lo_message_new (void);
           void lo_message_free (lo_message m);
           void lo_message_add_int32 (lo_message m, int32_t a);
           void lo_message_add_float (lo_message m, float a);
           void lo_message_add_string (lo_message m, const char *a);"))

(define t (lo_address_new #f "7770"))

(define message (lo_message_new))

(lo_message_add_float message 0.12345678)
(lo_message_add_float message 23.0)

(define result (lo_send_message t "/foo/bar" message))


I don't know how easy it is to receive OSC though. That's probably
a lot harder, but by using "in" to poll a ringbuffer, it isn't
impossible to do without having to modify snd itself.
