Simple way to iterate thru Umenu items to load .OBJs

I've set this up before, but I always feel like i'm doing it in a rather clumsy way.

I have a menu object which lists all the .OBJ files in a folder - Is there a simple way to iterate thru the list and load all the items (probably using a poly~ object which first creates enough voices for all of the models listed in the umenu) It might take a moment to load some of the models that are larger files. But even simplest case, to just iterate thru.

Any ideas would be so helpful. Thanks!

oh sad. this is exactly what I'm trying to do right now, only load videos into matrices. If I stumble on the elegant solution in my limited time (unlikely), I'll post it.
