I simply copied the extension list from Pd source. I guess you could just access the list directly and then not worry about it changing in the future. The code for [which] tries all possible extensions for the current OS and opens the first one that exists. Pd does the same thing, or at least the version in svn does. Probably if the relevant functions were exposed in m_pd.h they could all be used in situ.</div></span></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Just an FYI, I tried using [which] on Mac OS X and got this:</div><div><div><br></div><div>/Users/hans/code/pure-data/trunk/externals/mrpeach/which/which.pd_darwin: dlopen(/Users/hans/code/pure-data/trunk/externals/mrpeach/which/which.pd_darwin, 10): Symbol not found: _filelength</div><div><br></div><div>_filelength() looks like a Microsoft function.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>.hc</div></div><div><br></div><br><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div class="hmmessage" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana; "><br><br>Martin<br>_______________________________________________<br>Pd-dev mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Pd-dev@iem.at">Pd-dev@iem.at</a><br><a href="http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev">http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev</a><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div><br></div><div>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><br></div><div>The arc of history bends towards justice. - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></span> </div><br></body></html>
