Re: [chuck-users] list of filenames of a directory

2008/6/8 Renato Fabbri :

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.

Exactly. And one of the cool bits could be that OS's are quite good at sorting file types which has advantages as you'll likely only be interested in .ck, .wav and maybe .aiff files. It doesn't make much sense to try to load a pdf in ChucK. Kas.
