[RWP] OSC

[Indigo]

I'm so rudimentary I didn't even try to open an OSc file within Reaper.
I just went to StartMenu/Computer/Drive C/Program Files/ReaperInstalled 
Data/OSC and clicked enter on the top file.
Windows said can't open, so I chose wordpad, which opened the dot OSC 
extension just fine.
I could be wrong, but I assume you can edit the file freely with 
notepad, wordpad, whatever.
Instructions are included in the file, like to rename it after editing, 
and lines with numbers suggested how to change them to get other results.
This is what I remember after 2 minutes looking at it, I'll need to 
really look at it seriously, but; you know it frightened me that it 
might be so easy to use, because if I learned it I wouldn't remain a 
non-programmer; and I didn't get into all this to learn to be a rocket 
scientist, just make some music. smile.
