[PD] seeking 'playlist' windows version or means to implement similar function

[Jie Ma]

i could get the file names each at a new line. like
a.wav
b.wav
c.wav
but after reading them with textfile object, they are still gonna be 
seperated either by space, or by semicolon. then how could the output 
of textfile object(like a.wav b.wav c.wav.... or
a.wav ;
b.wav ;
c.wav ;
) be processed one by one? using read  ...%s?? or use pointer/element 
which gives no comments about how to traverse array word-by-word?

my failed prototype is

              read .../namelist.txt
              |
              textfile
              |________________________
              |                        |
              read ...%s arrayXX       tabplay arrayXX & go on.....
              |
              soundfile

p.s. sorry josh, i forgot to reply to the maillist rather than your 
mailbox, so have to do it again :p

parden me

regards
