Is there a way to address nonsequential lines in a qlist? for example if I want to address the 5th line that represents a soundfile would I have to bang 5 times to get that line or is there a way to address the 5th line. If not can I do this in textfile?
hi
first i made an abstraction for this problem: i made a patch that converts integers to the refering number of bangs. so it was possible to have random access to the lines in [textfile]
then i disccovered [msgfile] from zexy: it's the same like [textfile], but with more features. you can simply send it a [goto 5( -msg to let it jump to line 5.
Also is there a way to address different files within a folder randomly or do these file names have to be specified in a qlist or textfile? Thanks! Jim
Do you mean: is it possible to adress files within a folder of which your patch doesn't know the names? hm, i didn't find any solution for this problem yet. i'm wondering too........
