Thank you all for your answers. I don't know why I didn't think about
PD: excellent way to see its possibilities !
Concerning the SC language: I don't know anything about it, but I think
it is kind of overkill for my application (which doesn't really demand
any RT capabilities, if you don't consider playing a video as a RT
problem). Seems interesting, though for other applications.
cheers,
David
