hi there.
i am looking for the windows version of Yves' object -- playlist. or is there any way to implement similar function?
the reason is i need to test a large number of wav files. and instead of loading the name one by one, i have to work out how to do it efficiently. what i did before was to use dos command and generate a txt file with all the names of wav files seperated by spaces or semi-columns. but i fail to let the Pd array to read the content of this txt file word by word.
appreciate your help and time.
regards jay
have you thought of having the file list separated by newlines rather than spaces? if you did this then reading in each filename per line would be very simple.

for this purpose, the "coll"-object in the cyclone-library comes in very handy...
