ow yeah! nice idea Kassen. That, with Std.system to execute the command line can make it all somehow self-contained. something like:

// self-contained filenames chuck access
Std.system("chuck my-engine:filename1:filename2:filename3...")

which, when sporked, calls my-engine.ck with the filenames of a directory all accessible by me.arg
clearly, "filename1:filename2:filename3" can be replaced by a related command line for the given OS.

just sharing.. cheers

Hi Kassen,

okay, meanwhile one can stick to python scripts and osc messages when necessary. any better idea?

I don't know if it's "better" but anything that can get a list of files in a dir, like BASH scripting or the Windows commandline "for" command (to loop over file names) could call a .ck file with those names as parameters? That would remove the OSC part and thus reduce complexity. I'm making this up on the spot, it may or may not be practical.

Kas.
