This is a VERY helpful patch, thanks. I wish we could have something like playlist~ for windows.

Hey All It's the perpetual newbie here again. I've been working on a generative gem patch (to run on a seperate machine when I work) and I want this to load >and re-load images from a selected folder. So far the only thing remotely like it I've found is [openpanel] which requires a user to choose. I really want an >object to load files from this directory randomly or sequentially without human interaction. I think I've seen something like this before, just no idea what it >is. Also, I could use something like it for audio Thanks Andrew
This patch will do what you want. It was originally created for audio loops, but will work for any directory or file extension.
