[PD] [announce] playlist

hi,

as i was bored with 2 things :

• limitations of openpanel as regards

to non-alpha characters

• 3-click file loading in PD

i did this new object : playlist which enables you to select from a list of files with one click and, even, to make some random search in the list.

with this object and mp3live~, i made an xmms-like patch which is included in playlist.tar.gz. you need to update mp3live~ in order to make it work properly because i've added a bang when mp3fileout~ reaches the end of current file.

the playlist object can be used more generally for loading files ( samples, patches, .... ) and it handles most non-alpha characters ( those i've tested ).

sorry, linux only for now. ( are you busy, Olaf ??? )

cheers,
