maybe using s2l ? something (roughly) like:
[symbol drums_1.wav(
| [symbol _(
| |
[s2l]
[unpack s s]

| [symbol .(

[s2l]
[unpack s s]
[f ]

Is it possible to split a formatted symbol such as... drums_1.wav ...to extract the float '1' and use that to assign a meaningful attribute?
For example a float could represent a loop playback switch. if I have 'drums_0.wav' I would like to extract the float, find that it is '0' and then I would know that this WAV file is say, not to be looped. Or if I had 'drums_1.wav' I would be able to parse the filename, find the '1' which I now know to loop the WAV file.
Thanks in advance! John
