[PD] external for reading files from directories?

[B. Bogart]

Thomas,

I replaced my implimentation of the same thing with python because TOT
was truncating tcl commands and killing PD gui commands. Mr Czaja said
that TOT should not be used for scripting! I heed this advice. Do not
use TOT for listing files, you'll eventually regret it.
