Hi Miller,
Thanks for the clarification. Having soundfiler able to read binary files would be great. In fact at the end of the day, I was trying to replace the external [binfile] that does exactly that.
Cheers, Mario

The trouble is probably the presence of a '{' character in the file. But there will be other problems - ASCII NULL characters will simply terminate the string early, and semicolons, spaces, and commas will confuse things.
Somewhere on my long do-list is an idea to make an addition to soundfiler to read binary chanracters into an array.
cheers Miller

Hi,
I've been trying to read SysEx files using [text], and I noticed that the loaded file end up being corrupted in a way with bits and bops missing. Also trying to manually copy and paste part of the file (from Atom text editor) I'm not able to copy the entire file, there's always something missing (ie select all the file in Atom, copy and paste in [text]). When loading the file I've got no error, but then when I open the [text] window, this is returned on the console:
(Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: extra characters after close-brace while executing "pdtk_textwindow_append .x100617310 {d 0 iM @?, f h I R kQ, [ ???? ), Y Q Y1 -" ( , XFN
8 ) 6{) ) ; } pdtk_textwindow_append .x1006173..." ("uplevel" body line 39) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $docmdsI know, it's a kind of a weird thing trying to read SysEx files in this way and probably it's just me trying to do something with the wrong tool. But weirdly enough the sequences of characters I cannot copy and paste from Atom, can then be directly typed in the [text] window. I suspect this has to do with the character encoding. Does anyone know why [text] behave this way?
Cheers, Mario
