kieka,
is there an object to expand relative pathnames or filename which refer to one of the pd pathlist paths to an absolute path, so that e.g. if i put an image file inside the same folder as a patch, one can expand from the mere filename, say myImage.png to a full absolute pathname? elsewise, is there an object that tells you the name of the folder of the current patch?
thanks! best, -sciss-

[getdir] gets the path of the current patch. I just released
[folder_list], it lists files in a folder. Either/both of those
should do what you need.
[getdir] is in Pd-extended, [folder_list] will be in the next Pd- extended test release.
