That is a great idea.  ChucK FileIO is kind of limited at the moment.
I've been writing lots of pre-processing scripts in Python to make
fileIO in ChucK a great deal easier.  I think that fileIO is really a
great thing to have in ChucK and the better we make it, the more
options we have for using complex data in our favorite audio
programming language.

More when the storms pass...
